Pidgin 2.10.2 - Zwei Sicherheitslücken weniger und viele Verbesserungen

In dieser Woche wurde zwar AIM inoffiziell für tot erklärt, der Multimessenger Pidgin unterstützt den AOL Messenger aber weiterhin.

Pidgin hat ein kleines, aber feines Update erhalten. So wurden zwei potentielle Sicherheitslücken gestopft und zahlreiche Verbesserungen vorgenommen. Um ein Update auf Version 2.10.2 wird gebeten.
