Bug Description

If I start pidgin the first time after a reboot it is invisible. I have to end it (via the launcher) and then to restart it to make it visible. Just clicking on the launcher icon or the indicator doesn't make it visible.

Seems that it had been a plugin-problem. I've deactivated some plugins and now it works again.
