gaim (Ubuntu)
Fix Released
Medium
Unassigned

Bug Description

The button at the bottom of the gaim buddy list has your status, and a popup/dropdown menu to change it.
This has 2 sections, both of which contain simiar things, but the sections dont make it clear what they do.
(The fact they both have "available" and "offline" as options doesnt help)

This is fixed upstream. The fix will appear in the next release off the 2.0.0 line. I'm not sure if that'll be 2.0.0 final or 2.0.0beta4.
