[gaim-migrate @ 17340]
Put gaim-text and the gnt stuff into a gaim-text RPM so that our main RPM doesn't
depend on ncurses.
rpmbuild -ta gaim-2.0.0dev.tar.bz2 doesn't work for me anymore. Did it used to?
Does it work for other people? For me it prints
error: Name field must be present in package: (main package)
error: Version field must be present in package: (main package)
error: Release field must be present in package: (main package)
error: Summary field must be present in package: (main package)
error: Group field must be present in package: (main package)
error: License field must be present in package: (main package)
And it creates a file called "tar: Pattern matching characters used in file n
ames. Please," in my ~/rpmbuild/SPECS directory. It does not put gaim.spec
in my ~/rpmbuild/SPECS directory, and it does not put anything in
~/rpmbuild/BUILD or ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES, either

This file describes how to compile and run gaim with dbus support. Hopefully, most of the steps from point 3 will soon be automated. 1. Make sure you have the latest version (0.34) of the dbus library installed, including glib bindings. http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/dbus 2. Compile gaim ./configure --enable-dbus make make install 3. Configure your dbus instalation for gaim A. Find your dbus session configuration file, usually /etc/dbus-1/session.conf B. In that file, find the <servicedir> section. This section contains the directory that stores files describing services, usually /usr/share/dbus-1/services C. Copy src/dbus-gaim.service to that directory D. Edit the dbus-gaim.service file you've just copied, and replace the path in the "Exec=" line with the path to your gaim executable. 4. Start Session DBUS if you haven't done it already eval `dbus-launch --session` export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID These commands will set the two above shell variables. These variables must be set before running any dbus-aware programs. Start gaim as usual. To communicate with it, use "gaim-send". When you execute gaim-send, the dbus system will automatically start a gaim process if one is not running already.
