This patch should fix the problem, but not directly - it appears pidgin's developers DECIDED to change this - if Ubuntu wants the old style as default, this patch will have to be merged with the .diff in the package.

Will submit more detailed patch if I have time tomorrow - this was a test/patch from http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/5252 (patch wasn't accepted yet, but the patch does fix the issue).

see also: http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/5252 (and most likely others).

Bug was introduced upstream in pidgin 2.4.0
