Well... finally I'm done with the gaim-vv package for Ubuntu... I'm not sure if it's really good, 'cause it's my first serious one... It took a long time since I started trying... I had some problems compiling the software... something related to autotools that I still have to understand better. The libtool script tried to enter the NONE directory, which didn't exist, and I think it wasn't supposed to... I traced it back and got into this in configure.ac:
dnl ####################################################################### dnl # Check for X session management libs dnl ####################################################################### if test "x$enable_sm" = "xyes"; then enable_sm=no AC_CHECK_LIB(SM, SmcSaveYourselfDone, found_sm_lib=true, , [$x_libpath_add -lICE]) if test "$found_sm_lib" = "true"; then oldCPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS" CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS $x_incpath_add" AC_CHECK_HEADERS(X11/SM/SMlib.h, SM_LIBS="$x_libpath_add -lSM -lICE" enable_sm=yes) CPPFLAGS="$oldCPPFLAGS" fi else SM_LIBS="" enable_sm=no fi AC_SUBST(SM_LIBS) if test "$enable_sm" = "yes"; then AC_DEFINE(USE_SM, 1, [Define if we're using X Session Management.]) fi
All I did was to remove the
$x_libpath_addfrom the
AC_CHECK_HEADERSline and it worked. That's it. As I still don't know how to make a repository for you to install this package with apt* install, I'll get the deb file in my site in the session Linux/Packages. Try it and report bugs to tevaum at gmail dot com. Thanks
