Glad to not just make a test every other year, like for my other reports.
Thanks to everybody working on this !!!

This test did *not* work for me at first and it wasn't until I hacked
the DEB that I found why.
The certificates are not in pidgin but in libpurple0.
But pidgin...4.2 does not depend on libpurple0...4.2 which is, of
course, *required*.
So, my click on pidgin was a do-nothing.
After sighs, sweat and thoughts, everything was superb.

But hence, my conclusions are:
- that many users don't follow -proposed but are eagerly watching their
-updates for the word pidgin.
- that those lucky enough to notice the wagon on the other track and
jump on it may well fall over it.
Even if the wagon were painted in purple for a hint ;-)

It may even be argued that a Certificate update is a security update.

For the sake of Ubuntu.

Cheers.
