Pidgin’s new 2.4.1 version released

April 2, 2008

Pidgin is on a fast development track and just came out with their new version 2.4.1. There are several updates, such as:

• Add support for setting buddy icons on Gadu-Gadu (Tomasz Salacinski)
• Fix incorrectly marking some Yahoo! contacts as blocked
• Increase XMPP ping timeout to 120 seconds, to prevent poor network connections from timing out unnecessarily.
• Fix for displaying channel & buddy names in conversation window when they have ‘&’ in them
• Some memory leak fixes, especially in the Text Replacement plugin
• Rectangular but non-square buddy icons have rounded corners in the buddy list.
• And other crash fixes.
