Re: install pidgin ?
Best solution: Wait until it gets into the repos and apt-get it.
Second-best solution: Find a .deb for it and dpkg -i it.
"I-Really-Want-This-Now-And-I-Am-A-L33t-H4x0r" solution: learn how to compile software, download the source, install the dependencies, ./configure, make && make install.

Re: install pidgin ?
Hmm well I have used Gaim for 5 years or more now, and I downloaded Pidgin from http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=817
Installed the package quit Gaim and started Pidgin. All my old Gaim options were present in Pidgin.
One of my buddies have experienced that his .gaim folder got jacked up after second install of Pidgin, so take a backup before you install it.
Pidgin is great, Yeeehaaa it fixed my "couldn't add buddy 1 to the buddy list" problem.Check out my Ⓥegan youtube channel PlantSugar
