Update Pidgin 2.5.7

Akhirnya pidgin merilis 2.5.7 sebagai solusi karena tidak bisa masuk / login ke server YM utama yaitu scs.msg.yahoo.com, walopun ada solusi pengguna pidgin lama yaitu menganti server pagernya menjadi cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com.
Nah setelah rilis 2.5.7 ini pengguna pidgin bisa dengan nyaman kembali untuk ber-YM ria. Nah karena sebagian besar pc saya menggunakan BlankOn / Ubuntu maka beikut adalah langkah untuk upgrade pidgin menggunakan repositori PPA ubuntu.
* buka terminal
* echo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pidgin-developers/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pidgin-ppa.list
* sudo apt-get update
* sudo apt-get install pidgin

  1. saya praktekkan cara tersebut tetapi setelah
    kita beri perintah sudo apt-get update ada pesan error
    yg kira kira artinya tidak ada key nya
    gimana solusi nya bang
    trimakasih

  2. diigore aja gpp, lanjutkan!!!

  3. @ Ahmad : utk mendapatkan key nya :

    Ubuntu ships Pidgin but does not update it after a release (except for security issues and high-severity bugs). For those users who desire new releases of Pidgin, we have packaged Pidgin in a PPA. If you encounter problems with these packages, try building from source and report the bug.

    To setup the PPA, copy-and-paste these commands into a terminal:

    sudo apt-key adv –recv-keys –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com \ 67265eb522bdd6b1c69e66ed7fb8bee0a1f196a8

    echo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pidgin-developers/ppa/ubuntu \ `lsb_release –short –codename` main | \
    sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pidgin-ppa.list

    After doing this, open Update Manager, check for updates, and then install the newly available Pidgin packages.

    Future Pidgin updates will show up in Update Manager along with the usual Ubuntu updates. The PPA will need to be re-setup only after upgrading Ubuntu.

    This PPA is maintained by one developer, so please be patient. It often lags behind the source releases a couple of days.
