Pretty sure you can't delete buddies because they're contacts on MySpace - you likely have to remove them as a friend from MySpace, much like LIveJournal... someone who actually uses MySpace should confirm that though...

[evands]

Either way, the error is noninformative. Please file this in  Pidgin trac with the debug log and note the pidgin trac # here.

jas: with Livejournal, all of your livejournal friends are listed right when you sign in. With MyspaceIM you have to add them, either via the website, or the add function on the client. However, you don't have to have everyone added on your client. You can pick and choose, so I don't see why you wouldn't be able to delete them.

jas8522, for the record, it should be possible to delete buddies from your buddy list -- the list is separate from your friends on myspace.com, although you can import your friends (in the official client, at least). This is a legitimate bug that can be tracked by  #P5240.

jeff & alien88: Good to know, thanks for the info!

Closing all "waiting on libpurple" tickets. There's no reason to keep them around as open, and largely go ignored anyway. File a ticket at  http://developer.pidgin.im for any functionality you want to see.
