Binary package hint: pidgin

Upgrading libpurple0 requires libpurple0-bin to be upgraded and requires pidgin to be installed.
Thanks to this there are two IM-clients installed by default because libpurple0 is a dependency of telepathy-haze and thus indirectly of ubuntu-desktop. 
Libpurple0 shouldn't trigger the installation of Pidgin, there is no need for two IM-clients.

It seems to be caused by the fact that libpurple0 recommends pidgin-
libnotify. This package requires pidgin.
