Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and trying to help make Ubuntu better. The install failed because there is a conflict with the getdeb version of pidgin-microblog. However, this software package is not provided by the official Ubuntu repositories. Because of this the Ubuntu project can not support or fix your particular bug. Please report this bug to the provider of the software package. Thanks!
