To save save-file space, I decided to create a sfs file from pidgin-2.5.8 and OTR with its dependencies.
If you already use my pidgin/pidgin-otr pets, then you have to deinstall those first:

pidgin-2.5.8
pidgin-otr-3.2.0 and its dependencies:
glib-2.20.4
libgcrypt-1.4.4
libgpg-error-1.7
libotr-3.2.0

You gain about 34 MB free space and the sfs file is only about 18 MB.
You can get it from Rapidshare and will find the link at my site http://www.killerhippy.de/pet.shtml or use this direkt link: http://rapidshare.com/files/254270319/p ... .0_421.sfs

While trying to get the new pidgin running, I encountered a serious error when unmounting my pidgin sfs file. After reboot, the gui does not build properly. It shows an empty background, has just the clock and the menues. Rebooting does not work.

Howto fix:
Open a console from the top menue, this should work, at least it does here.
In the console execute This rebuilds the libary search path cache and fixes this misbehaviour. Now you can reboot as you are used to and afterwards everthing is fine.

Sorry, please excuse any disturbances you might have encountered.
