I just got this on Jaunty, but the last time I enabled Pidgin-Encryption
was with Feisty, back in the Gaim days. I checked the three files
responsible, and they had 644 permissions for some reason. This caused
Pidgin-Encryption to popup a notification for each entry in each file,
over 10 in my case, complaining about permissions.
It's reasonable to refuse to operate in this situation, but a torrent of
notifications is not helpful. Pidgin-Encryption should check the
permissions of the three files first, and then provide a single dialog
offering to remove 'group' and 'other' permissions if this is required.
