applied changes from c55cc517cc0bc09b677222a63f5f466531033719 through 51ea62d1cdee93a0f6ab96f22d28cbe07ea5d13b Plucked revision 51ea62d1cdee93a0f6ab96f22d28cbe07ea5d13b from im.pidgin.pidgin.2.6.1 Original commit message: Make sure configure checks for glib and gtk 2.4.0, since that's what is needed to compile. We took a small vote on IRC or in the jabber room and we all thought it would be fine to do this rather than try to make stuff work. We'll see how it goes.
