<leperkhanz> btw, [Pidgin] 2.1.0 does not work under wine.
<leperkhanz> you see giant letters on the screen, and I had to open system monitor and kill it.
<deryni> That's nice.
<leperkhanz> I've posted info in #winehq too, since it seems like a good place for them to triage wine bugs, as Pidgin is FOSS too.
<Samari> ...
<Samari> why on earth would you ever run pidgin under wine
<deryni> I can't imagine why they would care any more than we do.
<leperkhanz> To see what's broken in wine and apply fixes?
<deryni> What sort of meaningful information could possibly be gotten out of running a Windows port of a linux application using a Windows port of a linux graphical toolkit under a Windows non-emulator?
<deryni> Actually, strike that, I don't want to know.
<leperkhanz> Well, it's most likely a gtk problem anyway.
