Description of problem: After installing pidgin 2.4.3 gmail and msn support no longer worked - doing a rebuild of the .src.rpm from fedora 9 installed correctly and worked as expected. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pidgin-2.4.3-1.fc8.src.rpm How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load up pidgin 2. Attempt to login to gmail or msn 3. Message will pop-up claiming need for ssl support Actual results: Pop-up claiming need for ssl support Expected results: Connection to gmail or msn Additional info:
works fine here for me (pidgin-2.4.3-1.fc.8.i386)
let me clarify, only msn verified.
I think reinstalling pidgin & libpurple from F8 would have had the same (fixing) effect as rebuilding/installing F9 src.rpm (they are identical). Can you reproduce this issue at all? if you can, please verify pidgin & libpurple installation with "rpm -V pidgin libpurple".
Ok, though I know I did re-install individual rpms at one point, backing the entire thing down to pidgin-2.2 that shipped with Fedora 8 and running yum update seems to leave pidgin in a working state. Not sure what happened but closing as notabug
