I just applied the patch to pidgin-2.1.1, and it works flawlessly, and I
am thankful. BTW, it is easier to apply the concatenation of the three
diff files you have in the zip archive in one shot, so why don't you
distribute it as one patch file? Also, isn't it possible to make this a
plugin, rather than a patch (so it will be more convenient for people
who are not used, like me, to build their tools?)


$*unzip pidgin-2.1.0-protocolmod-diff.zip*

$*cat gtk*.diff > pidgin-2.1.0-protocolmod.patch*

$*patch -p1 -b --verbose < pidgin-2.1.0-protocolmod.patch*

Hmm...  Looks like a unified diff to me...
