Public bug reported:

Currently, gconf on pidgin is only used to retrieve proxy settings from
GNOME. It puts an hard depends on gconf, even if pidgin is used on a
non-gnome environment. Also, it seems that this feature may be broken
(see LP #878032 and https://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/13867).

The included debdiff move away the gconf files to a pidgin-gnome binary,
so people not using GNOME can remove the gconf depends.

** Affects: pidgin (Ubuntu)
