+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #453634 +++ Tuesday July 1st, 2008 ICQ changed their server in such a way that broke logins from the client identifier that pidgin used. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=310710 A very simple patch fixes this. It has to be backported for the older pidgin versions in RHEL but it is simple.
We are going to include this in a pending security advisory. I'm adding the 4.6.z flag.
An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below.
