#12927: --login option fails to work

Component:  unclassified                   |   Version:  2.7.5     
 Keywords:  --login accounts command-line  |  
-------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
 When using pidgin with the --login option the Accounts window opens up
 instead of logging in with the accounts specified on the command line.

 I had a script that managed the pidgin startup for me, and loaded
 different accounts based on my location.  The interaction with pidgin is
 simple "/usr/bin/pidgin --login=my at email.com/Home" was the command it ran.
 At the time I wrote the script, this worked flawless, but after updating
 pidgin a while back it hasn't worked.  I am now on version 2.7.5 and it
 still doesn't work.  Instead of loading the accounts it just brings up the
 accounts window.

 This is just an annoyance, but I'd appreciate it if this got fixed.

 Just fyi... I've tried running this command on its own, and the results
 are the same.
