Error downloading GTK+?

[Jonny May]

Hi all,

 

I looked in the FAQ and while there was a seemingly related topic, I was
unable to resolve my issue.

 

I d/l Pidgin 2.7.0 today and tried to install it, and the first thing it did
was give me an error: 

 

"Error Downloading the GTK+ Runtime:

http://pidgin.im/win32/download_redir.php?version=2.7.0
<http://pidgin.im/win32/download_redir.php?version=2.7.0&gtk_version=2.16.6.
0&dl_pkg=gtk> &gtk_version=2.16.6.0&dl_pkg=gtk"

 

It gives me the option to Retry or Cancel, but Retry consistently fails with
the same message. If I Cancel, then the installation finishes, but Pidgin
won't start because it is missing GTK+ Runtime.

 

If I reinstall Pidgin 2.6.6 everything seems to work OK.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Jonny
