Description of problem: When I go to Tools - Preferences - Network, pidgin tells me that the proxy configuration program was not found. Therefore the button to configure proxies system-wide is disabled. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pidgin-2.5.8-1.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Actual results: - Button is disabled, notification text is displayed Expected results: - Button should be clickable Additional info: The problem is that pidgin checks for gnome-network-preferences but in Fedora 11 it is called gnome-network-properties. As a workaround I can just create a symlink in /usr/bin and the button starts working.
Fixed upstream: http://developer.pidgin.im/viewmtn/revision/info/79639d895e39ef23c24691d0736a265373e2b49c Will be in 2.6.4.
