Yesterday, when I was trying answer a question on tor I installed it on my machine and at that point, it displayed a message saying a pidgin-XXX is not needed any more and hence run sudo apt-get autoclean
. I mentioned it as XXX because I don't remember what that package is. I have shutdown my PC and restarted in the evening, Pidgin started to hang. Not sure of the problem, I tried installing all the pidgin plugins with sudo apt-get install pidgin*
. This installed whole bunch of plugins. Even then it is in the same state. Can anyone let me know what I have uninstalled so I can reinstall or what need to be done to fix this issue.
I would like to update here saying that the pidgin gets hanged only when I login into my yahoo account. When I login into skype, it works fine for me. I just realized the same.
