#5331: Issue with plugin setting status message
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  Natureshadow  |       Type:  defect
   Status:  new           |   Priority:  minor 
Component:  libpurple     |    Version:  2.2.1 
 Keywords:                |    Pending:  0     
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 I developed a plugin that automatically sets the status message, using the
 Perl API. The code is

  $status = Purple::SavedStatus::get_current();
  Purple::SavedStatus::set_message($status, $message);
  Purple::SavedStatus::activate($status);

 The problem is that the status message text field at the bottom of Pidgin
 opens up with the correct message in it, but the message is not published.

 This only happens when there was an empty status message beforehand. If a
 previous message was set, everything is fine.

 A chat on the Pidgin IRC channel turned up that this might be a bug ...

 P.S.: I am testing this on Pidgin 2.2.1, but beta testers report that the
 same behaviour is shown in 2.4.0 ...
