Bug Description

Binary package hint: pidgin-plugin-pack

http://plugins.guifications.org/trac/ticket/549#comment:2
"This is because XChat-Chats version 2.2.0 predates Pidgin 2.4.0, in which there were some UI changes to the Conversation window. When using Pidgin 2.4.0 or newer, XChat-Chats must be at least version 2.3.0. If a newer Purple Plugin Pack was packaged for Ubuntu, this issue would go away immediately."

Pidgin's 2.5.2 by default in ubuntu intrepid. Pidgin-plugin-pack is 2.2.0 which is way out of date, and according to the comment mentioned above, this is an important upgrade needed to stop plugins to crash.

This request is related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/219093 which caused an upstream bug report that led to this request
