Talking with deryni in #pidgin on freenode, he indicated the root of the issue: /etc/purple/prefs.xml

The file there is the default prefs, and it's faulty. It needs to be fixed. Here is the pidgin-developer approved patch. This should replace that file. Note that docklet.so was an old plugin for the tray icon; it has been deprecated and should not appear in the prefs.xml at all.

I have included a patched pidgin-data.deb. The only file changed is the /etc/purple/prefs.xml.

The real question is: who else has this bad prefs, and why don't all Gusty users have it?
