Hi.
Pidgin uses NetworkManager to determine the network status; for example it
won't go online until NM tells it that a connection is available.
Now NM is sometimes just stopped for whatever reasons.
In that case pidgin should behave automatically as if it was invoked with
"--force-online.
This would match the behaviour of most GNOME programs, e.g. Evolution
which automatically stops using NM for network-awareness checks, when NM
gets stopped (without the need to restart Evolution).
Cheers,
Chris.
