Hi AB / Balugi / Nags
Freehoo checkin is done. Though lot of clean-up work
is pending, now it can able to send/receive messages.
Hope to do the clean-up ASAP.
I had problems with autoconf, automake versions in my
machine. Configure script exits saying no
"yahoo_send_im" found in libyahoo2 even when it is
present. But I did not do any fix regarding this. I am
compiling manually in my machine. Hope atleast it does
not require any changes in Debian machines. If anybody
face this problem, do the following until a fix is
been made:
1. Change congigure.ac:
(a) Goto line where you see AC_CHECK_LIB(yahoo2, ...
(b) Replace 4th parameter exit with 3rd parameter
[YAHOO2_LIB="-lyahoo2"]. So it becomes like,
AC_CHECK_LIB(yahoo2, yahoo_send_im,
[YAHOO2_LIB="-lyahoo2"], [YAHOO2_LIB="-lyahoo2"])
2. Execute these commands from freehoo top folder:
$ aclocal; autoheader; autoconf; automake;
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr
Now this will suceed and creates required config.h.
Now cd to src and compile manually using:
$ gcc *.c -Wall -g -c -I. -I.. -D_GNU_SOURCE
-DDATADIR=\"/usr/share\" -I
/opt/gnome/include/glib-1.2 -I /opt/gnome/lib/g
lib/include
$ gcc -Wall -g -o freehoo *.o -lreadline -lguile
-lqthreads -lm -L /opt/gnome/lib -lglib -lyahoo2
With few warnings binary "freehoo" is ready.
To send a message, do like:
Hoo> ?send kvisu2000 hi, how are you?
Hope it works.
Regards
Visu
