Since upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10, pidgin doesn't seem to sustain its applet-indicator (by the clock).
Pidgin is running, but I have no way to access it until someone messages me. After closing that conversation. I see no way to access my buddy-list other than trying to launching it again from the Unity dash.
I like pidgin to have its own indicator-icon by the clock. In 12.04, I could find pidgin's indicator-icon by clicking the envelope-
