Bug Description
Binary package hint: pidgin
Ubuntu Gusty 7.10
pidgin 1:2.3.1-1~getdeb1
Expected font to revert to user defined default formatting after pasting text or a link.
Font changes to black after pasting text or a link, not to the default format that the user defined.
Example: User defines font color as green in default formatting preferences. User im's someone and text shows up green as expected. A link or text is pasted from a website or application. Text shows up formatted same as the source; this is expected too. User types new message after sending pasted text or link. The text format does not show up as the default formatting preferences. It shows up black. it continues to be black and not the default green the user chose.
Workaround: Copy and paste previous text within the im window with the correct format. New lines of text default to the copied text.
