Description of problem: The gaim-otr package is not usable when installing FC6 Test3 (the plugin is greyed out in the plugins window from within Gaim). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gaim-2.0.0-0.11.beta3.fc6 gaim-otr-3.0.0-2.fc6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum -y install gaim-otr 2. Restart gaim 3. Click Tools->Plugins from the Buddy List 4. Scroll down to see Off-the-Record Messaging not available for use Actual results: Users are not able to use the gaim-otr plugin. Expected results: Users should be able to use encryption with their IM services through this plugin. Additional info: It appears that with gaim2, you need to apply the following patch to the gaim-otr source: http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/gaim2b2-otr.diff
Yes, this is a known bug. Unfortunate, I cannot fix it right now. I tried installing FC6test2 and failed horribly. Building the package in mock for Fedora Extras on the redhat build systems fails. No configure script is generated. I am trying to resolve this issue, but it might have to wait until I have managed to get an FC6 install working, or root access to someone's FC6 box/xenu image. If you have one, or can give me access to one, let me know.
Try building this one on your machine: ftp://ftp.xelerance.com/gaim-otr-3.0.0-0.2.20060920bcvs.src.rpm
The spec never finds the configure script that autoconf makes, but adding another cd to the spec seems to work fine: $ diff -urwN gaim-otr.spec gaim-otr-configure-working.spec --- gaim-otr.spec 2006-09-20 10:55:39.000000000 -0400 +++ gaim-otr-configure-working.spec 2006-09-21 12:09:07.000000000 -0400 @@ -30,6 +30,7 @@ #autoreconf %build +cd %{name} %configure make %{?_smp_mflags} all The configure fails though, presumably complaining about gtk, but I have the -devel versions installed (may be an upstream issue, not sure): checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes checking for EXTRA... no configure: error: glib ./configure: line 19168: exit: gtk: numeric argument required ./configure: line 19168: exit: gtk: numeric argument required error: Bad exit status from /home/mitchl/build/tmp/rpm-tmp.95063 (%build) Here are my gtk/glib versions: $ rpm -q gtk2-devel glib2-devel gtk2-devel-2.10.3-6.fc6 glib2-devel-2.12.3-2.fc6 Any other info I can give you, let me know.
Ahhhh. So the extra cd command fixes the problem for me. Thanks for that one. not sure why it is needed, must be because of the cvs versioning and the prep/build macros. The next error is that a gaim file is missing. I just found out that gaim now has a gaim-devel package containing the missing file, so I added the BuildRequire: gaim-devel >= 2.0.0 I've fired off a new build request, so hopefully the package will be done soon.
