Description Michel LeBlond 2004-08-22 19:05:35 UTC
Description of problem: perl module for Gaim   Gaim.pm not functioning.  


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Gaim 8.1   same error happened with previous version.

How reproducible:
Easy to test,  I have Fedora2,  friend has same problem on RedHat 9
system.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. add perl plugin script to /home/****/.gaim/plugins
(create plugins directory first)
2. Open up Gaim Check Plugins in  Preferences, plugin should show,
does not. 
3. Test perl script.  
  
Actual results:
No plugin shows in Preferences.
entering perl /home/xxxs/.gaim/plugins/pluginfile.pl
generates error

perl: error while loading shared libraries:
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Gaim/Gaim.so:
undefined symbol: gaim_perl_callXS
[michel@localhost plugins]$


Expected results: Plugins should work. 
perl should be happy with module


Additional info:
See this site for an example of a working plugin with instructions
etc.   http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~nksingh/checkers.htm
