Bug Description
Binary package hint: pidgin
In Pidgin's main window (Buddy List), use the keyboard to tab to the widget at the bottom, where you can change the status. When it has focus, activate it (using Enter or Space).
Expected Behaviour: the status list is shown, and it is possible to modify one's status using the keyboard. This is exactly what happens if you click on the widget instead of pressing enter or space while it has focus.
Observed Behaviour: the widget shows a "pushed" status, but the list is not shown and you can't change your status using the keyboard arrows.
Version information:
I updated Ubuntu to Gutsy Gibbon two days ago. The "About" dialog box says "Pidgin 2.2.1", and `aptitude show pidgin` says "Version : 1:2.2.1-1ubuntu4".

Confirmed. I just built 2.2.1 from the pidgin sourceforge source and things work as expected.
