Trisquel 8: exporting and importing Pidgin configuration files
Sat, 01/12/2019 - 14:48
Dear Trisquel users,
Please excuse me for my ignorance.
Based on [1] I get the impression that it is possible to export and import the Pidgin configuration files.
I've exported everything in .purple and copied it to another Trisquel 8 laptop.
But starting Pidgin there it opens with account configuration.
Thanks in advance.

I am a translator!
Try also copying the pidgin folders in (I have no idea of the actual name of the path..but you will find it..) -> ~/.config/pidgin , ~/.config/purple , ~/local/share/pidgin , ~/local/share/purple

Thanks for thinking with.
I searched and found a lot of files throughout the system.
After a fresh configuration of Pidgin it now works.
