I just wanted to warn you that this package is at risk of not being included in Debian 14. See https://bugs.debian.org/883214 . https://bugs.debian.org/1125052 is an example bug for a Pidgin plugin. I haven't heard directly from the Debian maintainer for pidgin. Upstream thinks it's too early now to package pidgin 3, but didn't answer my reply yet where I tried to get a better understanding of when it might not be too early. If the only Pidgin in Debian 14 is Pidgin 3, there might be none or only a few plugins ready. Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
