[Bug 928381] Re: pidgin 2.6.6 "waiting for network connection" not using network-manager

 

Thanks for reporting this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. Sorry we
don't always have the resources to get to every bug report. Ubuntu 10.04
is no longer supported so I'm going to close the bug.

Title:
  pidgin 2.6.6 "waiting for network connection" not using network-
  manager

Status in pidgin package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Since I start pidgin on startup and don't use it that often during the
  week I only noticed this recently.

  Pidgin is no longer connecting to the servers unless I put "-f" after
  it. It was working fine before with the same configuration, so the
  problem must have been recent updates.

  All the references I can find online for this problem are related to
  network-manager, which I don't believe is running:

  $ ps aux | grep nm
  bbogart   2170  0.0  0.0   8700   896 pts/1    S+   09:19   0:00 grep --color=auto nm

  I'll add the -f flag to start up pidgin from now on, but this seems
  like a degraded update to me.
