Repository : fedora
Summary : StatusNotifierItem tray icon plugin for Pidgin
URL : https://github.com/philipl/pidgin-indicator
License : GPLv2+
Description : This plugin provides a StatusNotifierItem tray icon, for use in
: KDE Plasma 5, Unity, Elementary and other environments.
:
: It provides all the same functionality as the original tray icon
: but not in exactly the same way:
: * The smart click behavior that either shows the buddy list or
: unread messages is now activated by a middle-click because
: left click on an libappindicator always opens the menu.
: * As the SNI-icon is a separate process from pidgin itself, there
: are sometimes conflicts with Focus Stealing Prevention when you
: use the indicator to go to unread messages. You may need to
: disable FSP for Pidgin to get around this.
: * Due to how libappindicator work, the middle-click action must
: also be a menu item, so it's the new Show/Hide item at the top
: of the menu.
: * Due to libappindicator limitations, some of the special icons
: cannot be shown next to menu items any more.
