    Question Problems upgrading to Pidgin 2.5.5

    Hello. I was trying to upgrade my Pidgin messenger to Pidgin 2.5.5 with the getdeb packages.

    I got through the Pidgin data, libpurple0 and libpurple-bin fine. When I got to the last file, pidgin, it gave me an error.

    Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libpango 1.0.0


    I'm on Hardy, 32 bits.

    Thanks.

    Have you tried to install the libpango1.0-0 package? You can search for it in synaptic and install or open a terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and install with
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install libpango1.0-0

    When I do that, I get this.

    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
    libpango1.0-0 is already the newest version.
    0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.


    Now it's giving me the Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgtk2.0-0 when I tried to run it again.

    Just on the chance that it would take the same issue to do, I did:

    sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
    libgtk2.0-0 is already the newest version.
    0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

    2nd try to reinstall:

    sudo apt-get --reinstall install libgtk2.0-0
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
