#5308: Huge icon inserted into KDE system tray
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  ralesk           |       Type:  defect
   Status:  new              |   Priority:  minor 
Component:  pidgin (gtk)     |    Version:  2.4.0 
 Keywords:  system tray kde  |    Pending:  0     
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
 Ever since 2.4 was released (at least as far as I know, this is fresh
 too), Pidgin inserts a huge (read: about 48×48 or 64×64) icon into the KDE
 system tray, instead of conforming to the usual twenty-something sized
 icons.

 This breaks a multi-line system tray into a single line, which… well, it’s
 just wrong.  You wouldn’t want that on Windows either (I guess Windows,
 however, is just way more restrictive about the tray icons, and KDE
 unfortunately isn’t) — and I realise that in Gnome it’s much more typical
 to have things become bigger and bigger in the panel rather than to wrap
 and provide you with more space, so I guess this is where this “feature”
 comes from.

 Distributions: Ubuntu, UHU-Linux (the latter is minimally patched, if
 that’s of interest, especially in the case of KDE3).
