Comment 3 for bug 1175537

There is an attempt in pidgin-libnotify to generate unique strings for each buddy, where each string is the id of a menu item in the Messaging Menu. If you are getting repeat entries, then for some reason it is generating two different strings for the same buddy.

If someone experiencing this bug could run: pidgin -d; when starting pidgin, and try to reproduce the bug. I'd be most interested in the results with lines like:

SOURCE activated '%s'

where %s is the buddy id. These would occur after clicking the menu item in the Messaging Menu for the buddy. It would be interesting to see how these differ for two different menu items for the same buddy.

Ideally I'd just like to see the entire log, but since that could reveal buddy ids, I'd be fine with someone going through and adding a comment with several examples of how the same buddy has two different ids (with names changed to protect the innocent).

Is this happening with Chat conversations or IM conversations (or both) ?
