Update to 2.1.0.
libpurple:
- Core changes to allow UIs to use second-granularity for scheduling. Pidgin and Finch, which use the glib event loop, were changed to use g_timeout_add_seconds() on glib >= 2.14 when possible. This allows glib to better group our longer timers to increase power fficiency. (Arjan van de Ven with Intel Corporation)
- No longer linkifies screennames containing @ signs in join/part notifications in chats
- With the HTML logger, images in conversations are now saved. NOTE: Saved images are not yet displayed when loading logs.
- Added support for QIP logs to the Log Reader plugin (Michael Shkutkov)
Pidgin:
- Ensure only one copy of Pidgin is running with a given configuration directory. The net effect of this is that trying to start Pidgin a second time will raise the buddy list. (Gabriel Schulhof)
- Undo capability in the conversation window
- The formatting toolbar has been reorganized to be more concise.
- A new status area has been added to the top of conversations to provide additional detail about the buddy, including buddy icon, protocol and status message.
- Show idle times in the buddy list as days, hours, seconds
Finch:
- There's support for workspaces now (details in the manpage)
- There's a new custom window manager, Irssi
- Some improvements for tab-completion, tooltip and the password entries
- Some bugs regarding search results fixed
- A new DBus-script to create a docklet for finch
- Support for showing empty groups in the buddy list (Eric Polino)
