#3808: nat-pmp issues on dragonfly bsd
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  merca      |       Type:  defect
   Status:  new        |   Priority:  minor

 At first I tried to install v 2.2.2 on DragonFly BSD 1.10.1 RELEASE. It
 compiled and installed fine but when I ran it (w/ pidgin -d on my xterm)
 and it seems to be hanging at "nat-pmp: Attempting to retrieve the public
 ip address..." (see attached script), the Welcome window doesnt come up at
 all. I thought maybe I had dependency issues so I downloaded the latest
 NetBSD pkgsrc and built Pidgin v2.2.1. Again that installed fine but I got
 similar results. What I had to do to get Pidgin working was to comment out
 the call to purple_pmp_get_public_ip in the function
 purple_network_get_my_ip() from the file libpurple/network.c. On my
 FreeBSD box this nat-pmp stuff is not an issue. It seems to just skip over
 it. Perhaps this nat-pmp stuff can be disabled at ./configure time.
