[Bug 474872] [NEW] pidgin-facebookchat doesn't work with new protocol

[David Mandelberg]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pidgin-facebookchat

Pidgin-facebookchat stopped working yesterday, apparently because of
changes Facebook made to the chat protocol. The new upstream version
1.62 is supposed to support the new protocol.

Upstream bug: http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-facebookchat/issues/detail?id=638
"Plugin will not work on any account, every time i try to login it says
"account disconnected. Could not retrieve buddy list." It does this for any
account i try to login with. It only started happening today, worked
flawlessly before. Any ideas?"
