Please upgrade at http://pidgin.im/". It seems to be a common problem among many ICQ clients. Until pidgin's developers will fix the issue, there is a short patch to make it work. >How-To-Repeat: Start pidgin, try to connect to an ICQ account. >Fix: At ubuntu bugtracker (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/244591/) there is a patch to libpurple, which fixes it. Just copy the attached file to /usr/ports/net-im/libpurple/files/ and reinstall libpurple.
