I enjoy using Pidgin on Ubuntu 14.04LTS, but recently my XMPP with Google Apps stopped working (Google claims my sign in was from "an app that doesn't meet modern security standards").

Before trying the latest Google Hangouts plugin, I'd like to get the latest version of Pidgin.

There don't seem to be any up-to-date packages/repositories out there. Would anyone be interested in providing one? I'm willing to bounty this.

Thanks!

Even the latest Pidgin does not work with Google's new security standards, which require you to login to a Google app authentication portal from inside the app.

I do not believe there is a solution to fix this at this time.
