Patch to configure script to enable msnp14 support none

Description Joel Michael 2008-04-05 08:55:21 UTC 
msnp14 support would be nice to have enabled in pidgin.  This might be better in
rawhide, due to the possibility of bugs in relatively new upstream code that is
not enabled by default.  Of course, I'd love to see it in F8, as that's what I'm
using right now.

One specific feature of msnp14 is the ability to send messages to buddies that
have set their status to offline, but are actually online.

(hope the attached patch isn't too badly mangled, but it's simple enough)

Absolutely not, there is a reason this is not even a standard option to
./configure yet - it is not ready for public use. Not even for rawhide. When
it's considered ready for use by upstream, I will reconsider.
