Just an FYI for you all: I'll be uploading pidgin to GNOME:Community very soon, just beating the old gaim-unstable.spec to do what's required. I'm splitting it, as per the project's guidelines and nomenclature, into libpurple[-devel], pidgin[-devel] and finch[-devel]. I'm deviating from their default by not splitting all the libpurple plugins into separate subpackages though - that's overkill IMHO. Is it too late to get this into 10.3? -- James Ogley james@usr-local-bin.org http://usr-local-bin.org GNOME for openSUSE: http://software.opensuse.org/download/GNOME:/ Help end poverty: http://oxfam.org.uk/in -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org

This is now in and I'm using it on Factory. I had to disable all the openSUSE patches of course[1] because all internal references to *gaim* have been removed/changed. If someone has time to go through them and see if they're simple to fix, it would be a good thing. I don't have that time I'm afraid - already taken too much time away from my actual work with it :)

If we were able to get it in, replacing gaim it would be a good idea I think, given the legal issues that gaim apparently has (IANAL of course) [1] Actually, most of them were removed when I created the gaim-unstable package because their functionality had been incorporated upstream. The major one is gnome-keyring support which, many of you will recall, wasn't working anyway in gaim-unstable ;) -- James Ogley james@usr-local-bin.org http://usr-local-bin.org GNOME for openSUSE: http://software.opensuse.org/download/GNOME:/ Help end poverty: http://oxfam.org.uk/in -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org

Let me check: it are months to go before freeze. So why should it? :-) Bye, Steve -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
