Hi,

Not reakky a loop, as the second message means that the old pidgin depends on 
the old library. And you were to replace the old library and would thus have 
broken pidgin.

You can do:
> rpm -Uhv libpurple-2.3.0-3.1.i586.rpm pidgin-2.3.0-3.1.i586.rpm
together on one line... they will be updated together.
