I've reported it to both Pidgin and KDE (kopete). They're all VERY
aware of it (kopete has at least 220 reports of it).
BTW, KDE does claim that the KDE4 version of Kopete works correctly.
I can't confirm as I don't run F9/KDE4 (and won't until F9 gets a bit
more stable).
Thanks for that information. Kopete from KDE 4.0 indeed works!
