Updated to libpurple 2.7.11. Highlights of applicable changes:

• MSN
  
  • Fixed bug that prevented adding contacts to your contact list in certain circumstances. (#14965)
    
  • Added support for MSNP16 including multiple points of presence (MPOP) which allows multiple simultaneous sign-ins and which should resolve connection problems involving the "Signed in from another location" error. (#13654)
    
  • Fixed crash related to Direct Connections. (#14650)
    

  [*]ICQ

  • Fixed a bug where some contacts from your contact list might not show up. Affected non-English users the most. (#14901)
    

Logging

• Added a "Log only certain accounts" setting to Adium's "General" preferences. (#8, #14522)
  
• Added a "Log secure chats" setting to Adium's "General" preferences. (#94)
  
• Renamed "Save opened chats when quitting" setting to "Reopen chats from last time on startup" for clarity. (#14651)

  [*]Mockie

  • New mention and focus indicators, and improved scaling at large font sizes. (#14420)
    

  [*]Renkoo

  • No longer scrolls to bottom on new content regardless of scroll position. (#14331)
    

  [*]Smooth Operator

  • Compact: Mentions in actions are no longer italicized. Sendercolor Adiumy is not displayed in IRC too. Fixed progressively increasing saturation of the sendercolor Adiumy on each consecutive message.
    
  • Classic: Fixed slight misalignment between sender and message. Lightened the on-click shadow. The per-message marks in the classic variant now grow to the left rather than to the right where it can overlap message text.
    
  • Dark: New variant!
    
  • all variants: Improved the performance of all-by-sender-on-click javascript. Shifted the builtin buddy icons down a few pixels so they look more centered. Switched to more compact focus indicattion icons

  [*]Stockholm

  • Reverted to pre-1.4 layout for per-message timestamps (#14361). Per-message timestamps now display on the left when the message text is RTL (#14361).
    

  [*]yMous

  • Removed the per-message triangle, slimmed the area between the sender and message, and fixed more elements to scale with font-size. Improved the performance of all-by-sender-on-click javascript.
