Hello,

In an attempt to install Pidgin, I downloaded the pidgin.repo file and
imported the PGP key from your site.  However, when attempting to run a "yum
install pidgin", I receive the errors below.  I am not able to find these
packages on your site.  Please advise


Error: Package: libpurple-2.7.9-0.el5.i386 (/libpurple-2.7.9-0.el5.i386)
           Requires: libsilcclient-1.0.so.1
Error: Package: libpurple-2.7.9-0.el5.i386 (/libpurple-2.7.9-0.el5.i386)

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
