Comment:

 I believe the initial report here is caused by the fact that "goes away"
 doesn't mean "enters the Away status" it means "enters an 'away' status"
 DnD is an away status as far as pidgin is concerned. I realize the
 distinction between "away" and "Away" is subtle but it is important (and
 hopefully is handled consistently throughout pidgin). N.B. I haven't
 confirmed that this is in fact what the code does but I believe it is
 accurate.

 cigozoph: The "Change" button in the top right of your post will let you
 edit it (it is possible you don't have that button, I don't recall the
 permissions on it offhand). "comes online" is not one of the default
 English actions I'm assuming you translated that for us? I'm going to
 guess that it is "Signs on" in the original but if you could give the
 translated string I could double check that.

 If in fact that is the option selected I'm not sure why pidgin would
 trigger on all of those changes (but again I'd have to check the code here
 to be sure I understood it all correctly). Can you confirm specifically
 what Action options are selected and exactly what state/etc. changes
 trigger the pounce? Also please make sure you don't have multiple pounces
 lying around accidentally (with the Tools->Buddy Pounce dialog).
