Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pidgin

1) Release Ubuntu Oneiric (Development Branch)
2) libpurple0 2.7.11-1 [and also affects pidgin 2.7.11-1]
3) Install libpurple0 for telepathy-haze
4) apt-get telling me about dependency problems

I am on Ubuntu oneiric (dev branch 11.10) and just found out that 
telepathy-haze's ICQ support is broken. This is due to libpurple0 (as well as 
pidgin itself) depending on libperl5.10 and perlapi-5.10.1, which are 
unavailable (checked on http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/pidgin), current is 
libperl5.12 and perlapi-5.12.3.
Installing a virtual package supplying both packages seems to work for ICQ 
support in telepathy-haze, but I didn't do any further testing/investigation in 
pidgin itself (not installed anymore).

Attached is an ugly ctl file for equiv-build to hack pidgin/telepathy-
haze support back to oneiric until this is fixed (though I guess it
won't be too long?). Make sure perl5.12 is installed ;-)
