 which in the openSUSE build root policy checks are raised to errors:
 E: pidgin 64bit-portability-issue dbus-bindings.c:4209, 5488, 7380, 10554

 The attached patch removes gpointer from the list of simple types, which
 resolves the issue (the patch has been in openSUSE packages for a long
 time already, since March 2008.

 Please merge the patch in upstream code, so we can drop it in our
 packages.
