No I'm referring to the directory libs/3rdparty/gaim in qutecom 2.2 This seems to be version 2.0.0 according to ChangeLog. No libpurple. No pidgin. Maybe we're missing something in the current qutecom here? Or was libpurple integrated on the trunk instead of 2.2 branch? The reason we think an update of the gaim libs would make sense is that on a debian Etch system I can successfully chat via MSN with gaim, while our build of qutecom can't even register (it hangs in a half-registered state where the peer can see me but qutecom still thinks it isn't registered). When the peer talks to me qutecom dumps core. And there are other issues with other IM protocols. So I wanted to try to link to the debian system libs Note that debian etch still has gaim and libgaim 2.0.0 too but there are always debian-specific patches that could make the difference... > There is lots of documentation on CMake and owbuild in the old OpenWengo > wiki (please keep this resource when migrating to qutecom!): a starting > point might be > http://dev.openwengo.com/trac/openwengo/trac.cgi/wiki/OWBuild and the > links cited there to the CMake documentation.
