Hi Anthony,

Yes, modifying the source and building my own binary would certainly be
possible.  However, I'd rather not have to do this for each subsequent
release, and a patch to make the input field resizable at runtime would
be more complex than simply hard-coding a larger fixed size.

I see that another user has filed a bug report in the Debian BTS :

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=469109

I think I'll wait to see what the Pidgin developers think of the request
to revert to the previous behaviour (or what the Debian package
maintainers think of applying a patch) before I start rolling my own
packages.

Thanks & regards,
