   I just wanted to warn you that this package is at risk of not being   
   included in Debian 14. See https://bugs.debian.org/883214 .   
   https://bugs.debian.org/1125052 is an example bug for a Pidgin plugin.   
      
   I haven't heard directly from the Debian maintainer for pidgin.   
   Upstream thinks it's too early now to package pidgin 3, but didn't   
   answer my reply yet where I tried to get a better understanding of   
   when it might not be too early. If the only Pidgin in Debian 14 is   
   Pidgin 3, there might be none or only a few plugins ready.   
      
   Thank you,
