pidgin not loading

[Daniel Dalton <d.dalton@iinet.net.au>]

Hi,

When I run pidgin I get this error.

pidgin: symbol lookup error: pidgin: undefined symbol:
purple_theme_loader_get_type

So how can I correct this problem? I see this error, but pidgin does not
open so therefore isn't usable at the minute.

So if someone can advice me on how to correct this error I'd greatly
appreciate it.

Thanks,
Dan.
