pidgin (1:2.7.4-1~getdeb1) maverick; urgency=low

  * New upstream version (LP: #665666)
    version 2.7.4 (10/20/2010):
    General:
    * Fix search path for Tk when compiling on Debian Squeeze. (#12465)
    * purple-remote now expects and produces UTF-8. (Guillaume Brunerie)
      (#12049)
    * Add Deutsche Telekom, Thawte Primary, and Go Daddy Class 2 root CAs
      (#12667, #12668, and #12594)
    * Fix CVE-2010-3711 by properly validating return values from the
      purple_base64_decode() function before using them.
    * Fix two local crash bugs by properly validating return values from the
      purple_base16_decode() function before using them.

    libpurple:
    * Fall back to an ordinary request if a UI does not support showing a
      request with an icon. Fixes receiving MSN file transfer requests
      including a thumbnail in Finch. (#12561)
    * Fix an invalid memory access when removing UPnP mappings that could
      cause sporadic crashes, most notably when MSN Direct Connections are
      enabled. (#12387)
    * Add a sentence to the certificate warning for expired certificates
      suggesting the user check their computer's date and time. (#12654)

    Pidgin:
    * Add support for the Gadu-Gadu protocol in the gevolution plugin to
      provide Evolution integration with contacts with GG IDs. (#10709)
    * Remap the "Set User Mood" shortcut to Control-D, which does not
      conflict with the previous shortcut for Get Buddy Info on the
      selected buddy.
    * Add a plugin action menu (under Tools) for the Voice and Video
      Settings plugin.
    * Use GRegex for the debug window where available. This brings regex
      filtering to the debug window on Windows. (Eion Robb) (#12601)
    * Add Google Chrome to the list of possible browsers on non-Windows
      systems.
    * Add Chromium to the list of possible browsers on non-Windows systems.
    * The "Manual" browser option is now stored as a string. It is no
      longer necessary to specify a full path to the browser command.
      (Rodrigo Tobar Carrizo) (#12024)
    * The Send To menu can now be used if the active account in the
      conversation becomes disabled or inactive. (Keith Moyer) (#12471)
    * xdg-open is now the default browser for new users on non-Windows
      platforms. (Stanislav Brabec) (#12505)

    Finch:
    * Add support for drop-down account options (like the SILC cipher
      and HMAC options or the QQ protocol version).

    XMPP:
    * Unify the connection security-related settings into one dropdown.
    * Fix a crash when multiple accounts are simultaneously performing
      SASL authentication when built with Cyrus SASL support. (thanks
      to Jan Kaluza) (#11560)
    * Restore the ability to connect to XMPP servers that do not offer
      Stream ID. (#12331)
    * Added support for using Google's relay servers when making voice and
      video calls to Google clients.
    * Fix detecting file transfer proxies advertised by the server.
    * Advertise support for Google Talk's JID Domain Discovery extension
      in all cases again (changed in 2.7.0), not just when the domain
      is "...
