Package: pidgin Version: 2.7.9-1 Severity: normal Hi,
the current version (2.7.9-1) of pidgin-data is broken when the package pidgin-facebookchat is simualtanously installed. The postinst of pidgin-data tries to overwrite files which are also part of pidgin-facebookchat, the package configuration therefore fails. Detailed error log below line.
