Yes.  Those were the correct files.  Now lets see which one you need to
comment out.  Whats the output of:

apt-cache policy pidgin

Title:
  Entries that are deleted from the Other software list just reappear.

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When running 'check for updates' in the Update Manager it objects to
  two PPA entries for Pidgin in the 'other software' list. If I try
  deleting these the deletion lasts while Update Manager is open, but
  when closed and re-opened these entries re-appear.

  I have a perhaps related problem with adding software reviews in the
  Software Centre. I can post reviews but once posted I cannot edit
  them.
