Comment(by taralluccio):

 Yes, it is only a warning about overwriting temporary files.

 It is actually caused by Aspell dictionary installer's batch file, which
 fails to remove temporary files (as it calls the `deltree` command, not
 present in NT-based Windows):
 {{{
 @echo off
 echo Starting TmpInstall\setup-Aspell-en-0.50-2.exe
 start /wait TmpInstall\setup-Aspell-en-0.50-2.exe
 echo Removing TmpInstall
 deltree /Y TmpInstall
 del %0
 }}}

 I believe that either specifying a different temporary directory or having
 Pidgin's installer remove it would be sensible workarounds.
