John: Just a quick release for a security fix here. Elliott has not
yet had a chance to work on the MSN breakage that's been present in
the last couple releases, but we hope he can do it before 2.7.10!
Changes 2.7.8:
Elliott: OK, so I know a few things broke with the last release, and
it's too bad we had to rush it for that silly certificate thing that
the MSN people can't configure properly. I've certainly done a lot of
small fixes this time, but it's too bad we haven't been able to get the
transfers with the official client fixed yet. I promise it'll be in
the next release (barring any quick security issues).
John: So, it's been about a month since we last released. Again, we've
assembled a bugfix release for your enjoyment. While a few commonly
reported bugs remain, particularly in MSN, we're working on it for the
next release. In the meantime, Merry Christmas and enjoy!
Changes 2.7.7:
John: Well, this time around, we should finally have the certificate
issue really and fully fixed for all of you MSN users. Also, we have
a few AIM-related fixes in this release, most notably the fix for the
new "SSL Handshake Failure" message some of you got after upgrading.
That one was an oversight on our part. Enjoy the fixes!

version, and bump all depends.
Per discussion on pkgsrc-changes.
|
|
* Lots of little incremental bug fixes and enhancements in this release.
* Finally got some fixes out there for you Yahoo users behind some
particularly annoying firewalls and proxies, among other fixes. Enjoy!
Changes 2.7.2:
* We discovered a security issue in Pidgin 2.7.0 and 2.7.1 and decided to
release a patched version quickly. This release contains the fix for that
crash, and a few other minor fixes.

Also add some patches to remove use of deprecated symbols and fix other
problems when looking for or compiling against libpng-1.4.x.

Additional changes:
Fix farsight handling in libpurple.
Set LICENSE.
2.6.2 (09/05/2009):
Mark: Woo boy it's been a busy two weeks. There was a lot of new code
in 2.6.0, and with new code comes new bugs. The cadre of relentless
developers responsible for Pidgin have been hard at work, and I believe
they have fixed all the major bugs that cropped up. My thanks to all
those names listed as Current Developers in Pidgin's 'About' window.
Elliott: Well now, just as Mark said, there was a lot of new stuff that
probably came up with tons of bugs. So I can't say I wrote anything
super-awesome, but I definitely fixed quite a few of those itty-bitty
why-didn't-this-work-this-way sort of bugs.

ICQ:
* Fix misparsing a web message as an SMS message. (Yuriy Kaminskiy)
MSN:
Increase NS command history size to prevent crashes on buddy lists that
have a lot of buddies on other networks like Yahoo!.
MySpace:
* Accounts with empty buddy lists are now properly marked as connected.
* Fix receiving messages from users of MySpace IM's web client.
Yahoo:
* Fixed phantom online buddies. They should now properly disappear when
signing out.
* Fixed the crashes some users were seeing with cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com in
2.5.7.
* Fixed compiling on systems with glib 2.4.x or older.
* Fixed an issue with file transfers. This may not resolve all issues,
but it should resolve at least some of the most common ones.
* The pager server will automatically update to scsa.msg.yahoo.com if the
user empties the field or if it is scs.msg.yahoo.com. This should ease
the pain of transition to the new login method.
XMPP:
* Fix an incompatibility betweeen Prosody and libpurple clients.

version 2.5.5;
version 2.5.5 (03/01/2009):
libpurple:
* Fix a crash when removing an account with an unknown protocol id.
* Beta support for SSL connections for AIM and ICQ accounts. To
enable, check the "Use SSL" option from the Advanced tab when
editing your AIM or ICQ account. (Paul Aurich)
* Fix a memory leak in SILC. (Luke Petre)
* Fix some string handling in the SIMPLE prpl, which fixes some buddy name
handling and other issues. (Paul Aurich, Marcus Sundberg)
* Implement support for resolving DNS via the SOCKS4 proxy (SOCKS4a).
ICQ:
* Fix retrieval of status messages from users of ICQ 6.x, Miranda, and
other libpurple clients. (Daniel Ljungborg)
* Change client ID to match ICQ Basic 14.34.3096. This fixes publishing
of buddy icons and available messages.
* Properly publish status messages for statuses other than Available.
ICQ 6.x users can now see these status messages. (Daniel Ljungborg)
* Fix receipt of messages from the mobile client Slick. (David Jedelsky)
MSN:
* Fix transfer of buddy icons, custom smileys, and files from the
latest Windows Live Messenger 9 official client. (Thomas
Gibson-Robinson)
* Large (multi-part) messages are now correctly re-combined.
* Federated/Yahoo! buddies should now stop creating sync issues at
every signin. You may need to remove duplicates in the Address
Book. See the FAQ for more information. Thanks to Jason Lingohr
for lots of debugging and testing.
* Messages from Yahoo! buddies are no longer silently dropped.
* We now save and use the CacheKey for ABCH SOAP requests.
* Don't try to parse Personal Status Messages or Current Media if they
don't exist.
* Convert from ISO-8859-1 encoding to UTF-8 when no charset is specified
on incoming messages. This should fix some issues with messages from
older clients.
* Force sending the font "Segoe UI" if outgoing formatting doesn't specify
a font already.
* Queue callbacks when token updates are in progress to prevent two token
update attempts from trampling each other.
* Fixed a crash on Windows when removing a buddy's alias.
* Update the Address Book when buddies' friendly names change. This
prevents seeing an outdated alias or not seeing an alias at all for
buddies who are offline when you sign in.
* Update tokens for FindMembership and ABFindAll SOAP requests.
* We no longer try to send empty messages. This could happen when a
message contained only formatting and that formatting was not supported
on MSN.
* Buddies on both the Allow and Block list are now automatically
removed from the Allow list. Users with this problem will now no
longer receive an ADL 241 error. The problematic buddy should now
appear on the buddy list and can be removed or unblocked as desired.
XMPP:
* Resources using __HOSTNAME__ substitution will now grab only the short
hostname instead of the FQDN on systems which put the FQDN in the
hostname. (Matěj Cepl)
* No longer send a 'to' attribute on an outgoing stanza when we haven't
received one. This fixes a registration bug as described in ticket
#6635.
Pidgin:
* Tooltip windows now appear below the mouse cursor. (Kosta Arvanitis)
* Tooltip windows now disappear on keypress events. (Kosta Arvanitis)
* Tooltip windows no longer linger when scrolling the buddy list. (Kosta
Arvanitis)
Finch:
* Allow rebinding keys to change the focused widget (details in the
man-page, look for GntBox::binding)
version 2.5.4 (01/12/2009):
libpurple:
* Fix a connection timeout with empty Gadu-Gady buddy lists. (Martin
Rosinski)
* Don't ignore namespace information when parsing XMPP data. (Michal
Witkowski)
* Fix a crash that occurred when retrieving certain Offline Messages
on MSN.
* Extended purple-url-handler to handle "gtalk" URI's. (Paul Aurich)
* Fix the hang on exit in Network Location Awareness for Windows XP
and Windows Vista. (Paul Aurich)
MSN:
* Change Contact Server to temporarily fix connection problems.
(Thanks to Youness Alaoui)
XMPP:
* Support for XEP-0191 blocking. (Vijay Raghunathan)
* Don't put SASL PLAIN or IQ Auth passwords in debug logs. (Paul Aurich)
* Fix removal of avatars (both PEP and vCard), we weren't removing
them correctly before. (Paul Aurich)
Pidgin:
* Fix a crash in the Add Account dialog when changing protocols under
certain circumstances.
Finch:
* Redirect stderr outputs to the debug window.
* Fix rebinding actions with the arrow-keys and tab.

* Pidgin
o On GTK+ 2.14 and higher, we're using the gtk-tooltip-delay setting instead of our own (hidden) tooltip_delay pref. If you had previously changed that pref, add a line like this to ~/.purple/gtkrc-2.0 (where 500 is the timeout (in ms) you want):
gtk-tooltip-timeout = 500
To completely disable tooltips (e.g. if you had an old tooltip_delay of zero), add this to ~/.purple/gtkrc-2.0:
gtk-enable-tooltips = 0

version 2.3.0 (11/24/2007):
http://developer.pidgin.im/query?status=closed&milestone=2.3.0
Some highlights from ChangeLog:
Pidgin:
* Connection errors are now reported in mini-dialogs inside the buddy
list, rather than as buttons in the buddy list and with dialog
boxes. If several accounts are disabled when you sign on elsewhere,
you can now re-enable them all with a single click.
* If you alias a buddy to an alias that is already present within
a particular group, we now offer to merge the buddies into the
same contact.
* A music emblem is now displayed in the buddy list for a buddy if we
know she is listening to some soothing music.
* Added a 'Move to' menu in buddy list context menu for moving buddies
to other groups as an alternative to dragging.
* It is now possible to mark a chat on your buddy list as "Persistent"
so you do not leave the chat when the window or tab is closed.
* The auto-join option for chats is now listed in the "Add Chat"
dialog along with the new persistence option.
* Closing an IM no longer immediately closes your conversation. It
will now remain active for a short time so that if the conversation
resumes, the history will be retained. A preference has been added
to toggle this behavior.
* The "Smiley" menu has been moved to the top-level of the toolbar.
* Pidgin's display is now saved with the command line for session
restoration. (David Mohr)
* ICQ Birthday notifications are shown as buddy list emblems.
* Plugin actions are now available from the docklet context menu
in addition to the Tool menu of the buddy list.
* The manual page has been heavily rewritten to bring it in line
with current functionality.
Finch:
* It's possible to bind key-strokes to specific menuitems in the windows.
Read the 'Menus' section in the man-page for details.
* 'transpose-chars' operation for the entry boxes. The default key-binding
is ctrl+t.
* 'yank' operation for the entry boxes. The default binding is ctrl+y.
