Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pidgin

While using Pidgin on Ubuntu, one of my Yahoo Messenger groups has an
apparently corrupt name of "uFriends". It was originally named just
"Friends" in Yahoo Messenger so I'm not sure where Pidgin got the
strange characters. The group name field changes every few seconds to
another group name or to an individual's alias. I can temporarily
correct this by renaming the group to just "Friends" and merging it with
my other Friends group. Pidgin, however, does not appear to save this
renamed group permanently so I encounter the same group name problem
every time I restart it.

This is my first time to report a new bug. I used the built-in Report A
Problem feature so hopefully all the info you need is automatically
attached.
