(Missed the reply-all, here it is again for the record)

Did you install the dependencies manually, or via yum/rpm? If manually,
rpmbuild doesn't know that you have those libraries installed, and could
cause this error. Try the following to automagically install whatever pidgin
requires to build:

sudo yum-builddep pidgin
