Comment:

 This is a regression in the gtkstatusicon code.  Ubuntu is carrying
 charkins's patch for this (along with the backported gtkstatusicon code
 itself) in their 2.6.6 version in 10.04.  It's a five-line patch that
 doesn't break ABI, so I think we should apply it.

 {{{
 +
 +       if(purple_prefs_get_bool(PIDGIN_PREFS_ROOT "/docklet/blink")) {
 +               gtk_status_icon_set_blinking(docklet, (pending &&
 !connecting));
 +       } else if(gtk_status_icon_get_blinking(docklet)) {
 +               gtk_status_icon_set_blinking(docklet, FALSE);
 +       }
 }}}
 To the end of gtkdocklet-gtk.c:docklet_gtk_status_update_icon() (see

 blink.diff)
