[Secure-testing-team] Bug#542586: pidgin: Security update 2.4.3-lenny3 not installable [amd64]

Package: pidgin
Version: 2.4.3-4lenny3
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole

The security update 2.4.3-lenny3 is not installable on amd64, because of unmet dependencies:
libdbus-glib-1-2 >= 0.78
libstartup-notification0 >= 0.10
perl >=0.10.

According to the package webpage, only amd64 has these high dependencies, so maybe just a clean rebuild is required to solve this issue (?!).
