Frank is totally right, trac is not for tech support like this, but for errors that need to be fixed in software.

'cause you're new, though - just type pidgin from a terminal window and you're in business.

to find out what a port installs, you can type, for example:

port contents pidgin

most things you can run are in the bin/ directory. So port contents pidgin | grep bin/ will git you a list of the runnable binaries.
