Hello,

The third-party plugin for Pidgin 2.x mentioned earlier, pidgin-gnome-keyring by Ali Ebrahim[1], is now packaged and published in Debian (Sid and Stretch, maintained by me) [2] and Ubuntu (Wily, auto-imported from Sid) [3].

This version uses Freedesktop's Secret Service API via libsecret, so for now only Gnome Keyring supports it, as KDE Wallet has not yet been updated to use libsecret, although I believe it is on the roadmap.

Would this be enough to mark this bug as fixed, pending 15.10 release?

Kind regards,
Luca Boccassi
