I do not know where you might be able to find a .deb of 1.5.x but you might be able to get away with running alien on the .rpm package that RedHat has of 1.5.x.

Alternately, the sources are in monotone in the im.pidgin.gaim.gtk1- stable branch.

Greetings,

I am disabled,with cognitive and anxiety issues. One thing I have discovered is that new isn't always a good thing, especially for something that is important. Instant Messenger is perhaps my most important piece of software as it allows me to socialize safely where I normally can't otherwise.

But I am unable to work comfortably with Pidgin.

I recently transitioned my computer from Windows to Linux, but am transitioning myself by installing my same version of Windows in a Virtual Machine. As I cannot use Pidgin because the interface is too different (just know that I am disabled, and there is significant difficulty attempting to adjust, so much so that I cannot), I am relegated to keeping my VM open and on the desktop at all times so that I can socialize. But I don't want to operate soley in Windows.

The only solution is for me to acquire a copy of GAIM 1.5, or even 1.3.1 which I currently use, for Linux, preferably a .deb package. If anyone has access to the source code and can build a package or provide a copy to me so I can try to build one, or perhaps has a .deb package of GAIM 1.3.1. or 1.5; please let me know.

Thank you.


Michael Wolf
