Stuart Read (sread) wrote : Changing status in indicator-applet signs in Telepathy when Pidgin is running

Binary package hint: indicator-applet

1) Ubuntu Karmic, up to date.

2) indicator-applet-session 0.1

3) Piding should change status when using the indicator-applet without logging in Telepathy.

4) When changing the status of pidgin using the indicator-applet-session, it sucessfully changes the status of pidgin and simultaneously signs in Telepathy. This causes single-sign-in protocols (ie MSN) to sign out, as the Telepathy login revokes the existing Pidgin Login.

NB: This requires that these accounts are configured in empathy (ie, you tried it out once)

I don't think that indicator-applet should be activating Telepathy on it's own, it should only change the status of IM programs that the user has explicity started, not just configured.
