Pidgin

[jpmatrix]

i've installed pidgin from z.drun.net but it seems it wants some libraries :

libpurple.so.0

any help please?

How you installed it ? libpurple.so.0 is inside pidgin's package.

hmm via package manager under pdaxii13 5.4.6... perhaps something went wrong during install process... i'll try a stock ipkg install tomorrow morning when i'm awaken

[jpmatrix]

here is the error i m having on launch :

root- pidgin: relocation error: pidgin: undefined symbol: g_object_ref_sink

[1]+  Exit 127                pidgin

any help?

[kkazakov13]

Yes - as you started, just upgrade all CORE libraries  gtk2, glibc, and the rest  But backup first, please. They work here flawlessly, but just in case. I'm using modified beta 3, not pdaxii13

[jpmatrix]

you know what ? i killed my pdaxii13
so far i'm going to try angstrom again
thanks for help

[kkazakov13]

you killed it ? wow, even I was unable to do this with all my compilations, library overwriting and so on

when i installed your gtk libraries, on next startx there was no icon on the display... and i didn't find any glibc or x11-related packages on your repository. anyway i'll give it another try later...

has someone succeed in running pidgin under pdaxii13 ?

[adf]

It didn't work for me either---there are apparently some incopatibilities, as you experienced

[kkazakov13]

Well, it runs on library-upgraded pdaxrom beta 3. No idea about pdaxii13. If it does not work - compile it by yourself. It's all I can tell you  works great here, and use it almost every day.

see the new package announcement thread. i compiled a pidgin 2.0.2 for stock beta3 which requires no package upgrades and also pdaXii13...

I have the same error. And gaim segmentfaults too after installing this version of pidgin.

[Raul]

Newest build (2.0.2-1) segmentfaults in the same moment.

[deadite66]

2.0.2-1 worked for me.
