Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pidgin

When the environment variable LANG is set to ko_KR.utf8, pidgin displays
all my MSN buddies and groups, but when LANG is set to en_US.utf8, a
group and all buddies belonging to it disappear from the buddy list.
For example, if I start pidgin with

    $ env LANG=ko_KR.utf8 pidgin

then the buddy list window shows all my MSN buddies and groups.  I have
three groups whose names are all written in Korean.  If I start pidgin
with

    $ env LANG=en_US.utf8 pidgin

then one of the three groups disappears from the buddy list window and
only the other two are shown.  Then, the lost group is restored if I
restart pidgin with LANG=ko_KR.utf8.  I keep the options
Buddies->Show->Offline Buddies and Buddies->Show->Empty Groups enabled
in both cases.
