After pidgin security update: irc not available.


irc was working on:

Code:
# uname -a
Linux tsunami 3.2.29 #2 SMP Mon Sep 17 14:19:22 CDT 2012 x86_64 AMD FX(tm)-8120 Eight-Core Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
Worked until:
Code:
upgradepkg pidgin-2.10.7-x86_64-1_slack14.0.txz
broke it. Simply not available in list of supported protocols.

I've read the relative threads where http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...rc-4175450115/ states that it will be marked [Solved] when the issue is.

Is the above thread the definitive source for info on resolution of the issue?

Really miss my IRC via pidgin.
