Maybe related in Pidgin 2.14.0? ...SNIP... checking for gnt >= 2.14.0... no configure: error: Finch will not be built. You must have libgnt >= 2.14.0 development headers installed to build. The build terminates at this point.

> checking for gnt >= 2.14.0... no > configure: error: > > Finch will not be built. You must have libgnt >= 2.14.0 development headers installed to build. Same for me with pidgin-2.14.0.
[ebuild U ] net-im/pidgin-2.14.0:0/2::gentoo [2.13.0-r8:0/2::gentoo] USE="dbus gstreamer gtk idn ncurses nls spell xscreensaver (-aqua) -debug -doc -eds -gadu -gnutls -groupwise -meanwhile -networkmanager -perl -pie -prediction -python -sasl -tcl -tk -zephyr -zeroconf" PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python3_7 -python3_6" It installs successfully if I install net-im/pidgin and x11-plugins/purple-plugin_pack with USE="-ncurses".
Is this bug still valid?
