    Pidgin is a multi-protocol Instant Messaging client that allows you to use all of your IM accounts at once.

    After downloading Pidgin, you will need to install some necessary tools using the following command -

    Exctract the file, go to the directory and run these commands.
    ./configure
    make
    sudo checkinstall
