Package: pidgin
Version: 2.6.6-2
Severity: normal

In auth requests in ICQ, when people using Cyrillic texts, there are
broken encoding. Like Приветик! which means "Приветик!" string
for example.
I have a patch(I don't write it, I found it on russian ubuntu forum, and it
was written few years ago(for 2.4.1 version, maybe). I'm not sure, but
author of this patch is Denis
Konstantinov(http://forum.ubuntu.ru/index.php?action=profile;u=41)
He made a ticket with this patch, but it was not accepted with pidgin
developers.
I use it for this long time recompiling pidgin package from repos with
this patch. URL: http://librarian.spb.ru/utf8.patch
Please check him, and if it possible add to upstream
