Comment 5 for bug 355329

Pidgin 2.7.9 uses by default an icon in the system tray. If the messaging menu is installed it also uses this menu. I think this bug is fixed (the status should be Fix Released). I also think that we should open a new bug to disable the system tray icon when the messaging menu is present. Now you have to disable it in the preferences menu. I'll ask my menton and come back later.
