Comment(by renatosilva):

 Normally you would not use the upstream PPA for security updates, since
 Ubuntu should backport them to the local packages.
 [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/958208 See this
 backport request].

 Also, if you use Pidgin for IRC, note that the Ubuntu version
 2.10.0-0ubuntu2 contains a fix for the following equivalent bugs, not
 fixed in original version so far:
