Building Pidgin on Ubuntu with all the fixin's

I had a heck of a time finding the packages I needed to install so that Pidgin would compile with all of its extensions and protocols – particularly screen saver integration for "away" status. Hopefully a good version will be included in Gutsy. These are the components I needed for building Pidgin 2.10 under Edgy. (Why am I still on Edgy? Because distribution upgrade didn't work from Dapper to Edgy, so I mistrust it, and I haven't set aside a morning to upgrade.)

I spent the most time figuring out which packages would contain mono.pc and gstreamer0.10.pc – once I figured that out it went a lot faster. Hope this helps -- it probably isn't everything, but it's most of it. Start with a nice howto, and use the stuff below to turn on the other options.
