Comment(by datallah):

 By default pidgin from source will install to `/usr/local` prefix instead
 of `/usr` because that's where stuff installed from source *should* go.

 Copying files around isn't really a good idea.

 The correct solution is probably to remove the Pidgin/Libpurple installed
 from the package if you want to use the source installed version.

 Alternatively, you probably just could run `sudo ldconfig`.
