New description:

 When connecting to a SILC server, pidgin will get the status of your
 buddies (online, offline). However, pidgin will no longer update their
 status if they change, I have to reconnect to the SILC server instead to
 force pidgin to reread their statuses.

 For example: If I login to a SILC server, Buddy A is online. 5 minutes
 later, Buddy A logs off. Pidgin will not update Buddy A's status, and will
 display them as being online until I reconnect.

 The opposite is also true. I am not notified when my buddies login. If
 they are offline when I login to SILC, but come online 5 minutes later,
 pidgin will still show them as offline.

 I would attach a debug log related to this, however nothing is shown when
 buddies go online or offline. SILC's detach feature is also disabled on
 the server.
