[Bug 530660] Re: [FFe] Replace pidgin-mbpurple with pidgin-microblog (was: package pidgin-microblog (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/purple-2/liboldtwitter.so', which is also in package pidgin-mbpurple 0:0.2.4-0ubuntu1)

I'll upload it with two small changes (diff attached):
* Add ${misc:Depends} to the transitional package
* Change description of transitional package. The short description should not take more than a line and the long description was missing.

** Patch added: "pidgin-microblog_0.2.4-1ubuntu1.diff"

Status in “pidgin-mbpurple” package in Ubuntu: Invalid
Status in “pidgin-microblog” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed

Bug description:
Debian added pidgin-mbpurple as pidgin-microblog, so we need to have a transitional package for Lucid for pidgin-microblog and drop pidgin-mbpurple from the archive.

Package built here:
https://launchpad.net/~micahg/+archive/patch-test/+packages

Properly replaces pidgin-mbpurple now.
