Comment 64 for bug 112511

Scratch that request for help on pidgin-encryption I'm just a little slow and forgot to change some of the flags in debian/rules We've now got pidgin-encryption working as well.

In addition to the inclusion of these extra packages, Trausch and I have also created an apt repository for all of our backports. You'll be able to get the following packages (i386, AMD64, and source):

pidgin
pidgin-blinklight
pidgin-data
pidgin-dbg
pidgin-dev
pidgin-encryption
pidgin-extprefs
pidgin-guifications
pidgin-hotkeys
pidgin-libnotify
pidgin-librvp
pidgin-otr
pidgin-plugin-pack
gaim-xfire --works with Pidgin, despite the gaim naming convention
libotr2
libotr2-bin
libotr2-dev
musictracker
nautilus-sendto
gaim (transitional)
gaim-extendedprefs (transitional)
gaim-guifications (transitional)
gaim-hotkeys (transitional)
gaim-irchelper (transitional)
gaim-libnotify (transitional)
gaim-thinklight (transitional)

To add our repository to your apt source.list, simply add the following lines:

deb http://www.ansemreport.com/pidgin/repo feisty feisty-backports
deb-src http://www.ansemreport.com/pidgin/repo feisty feisty-backports

Please put these packages under the full stress test. If we've done something wrong in the packaging (which I can probably guarantee you we have) let us know and we'll fix it. The more testing we can do, the higher the chances are of getting an official backport approved.
