 Replying to [comment:5 nickd05]:
 > I forgot Pidgin runs plugins from the .purple folder in Application Data
 before trying to run them from the actual Pidgin install directory. Copied
 all of the new plugins from the fresh install to the plugins folder in
 .purple, now it works like a charm.

 Is there a reason you're copying all of the prpls Pidgin ships to
 .purple/plugins? Plugins that ship with Pidgin are not necessarily
 backward-compatible (i.e. the 2.6.1 plugins probably won't run with
 2.5.8).
