Comment(by matteosistisette):

 It is NOT fixed.

 I have installed pidgin 2.7.7 (had to compile from source, as a
 precompiled package for 2.7.7 is not available yet), and the certificate
 error still pops up all the time. Nothing changed.

 So please:
 1 - reopen this ticket
 2 - remove the note on the home page that claims that "Pidgin 2.7.7
 completely fixes the MSN certificate issue".

 The false claim that 2.7.7 will fix the issue is particularly harmful, as
 it makes people like me waste a lot of time. I downloaded the source code
 and went through tha painful process of launching the config script again
 and again to find out ONE AT A TIME all the packages I had to manually
 install. And all that just to find out that the issue is still
 there?????????? That sucks.

 There's really no need to make people believe version 2.7.7 fixes an issue
 if it doesn't. That's stupid.
