Binary package hint: pidgin

I have Pidgin set to only show an icon in the notification area if it's
actually notifying me of something.  This should mean that the Pidgin
buddy list cannot hide (because it requires an always-there "tray icon"
to unhide).  Using Pidgin since the new Canonical Notification System
came out, it does hide, however.  And if you're using KDE the message
indicator applet that exists in GNOME has no corollary, so there's no
way to unhide the buddy list window.

The result is that if you have the icon set to show only for new
messages or not at all and you use KDE in Jaunty, Pidgin will be
running, notifications will be shown, messages will be received...and
there will be no way to reach the buddy list.
