Comment (by db42):

 Ok, downloading the file seems to work. I think
 "htdocs/download/index.php" PHP code should have an addition inside:


 {{{
 <?php
         // this should put in start of page, for Header Location to
 work...
         if (isset($_GET["autodetect"]))
         {
                 // http://www.php.net/get_browser (check notes)
                 // this function needs php_browscap.ini from
                 // http://browsers.garykeith.com/downloads.asp
                 // actually that should be added for fedora support, and
 others...
                 $os = get_browser(null, true)[platform];
                 if (stristr($os, 'win'))
                 {
                         header('Location:
 http://downloads.sourceforge.net/pidgin/pidgin-2.2.0.exe');
                         exit;
                 }
                 else if (stristr($os, 'fedora'))
                 {
                         header('Location:
 http://www.pidgin.im/download/fedora_core/');
                         exit;
                 }
         }
 ?>
 }}}

 and from the main page, the d/l button can link directly to
 "download/index.php?autodetect=1" or so...
 the .ini for user-agent should add support for fedora and others.
