pet for 5.2.5 added too

Posted: **Tue 16 Aug 2011, 19:54**

Hi. Pidgin 2.9.0 works superbly on Lupu and Luci. I only use IRC, however.

Is there any chance of a pet for Wary 5? The newest version in PPM is 2.7.5, which is pretty old. I tried installing the Lupu PET but it complains about the following missing dependancies:-

Code: Select all

File /usr/lib/libpurple-client.so.0.9.0 has these missing library files:
 libdbus-glib-1.so.2 libdbus-1.so.3 
File /usr/lib/purple-2/libbonjour.so has these missing library files:

Thanks for bringing Pidgin to Puppy!

Hi Jades, did you try version built for 431? Because it shouldn't have dbus dependencies maybe it will run on wary

Pidgin updated to 2.10.0
There are two builds, one compiled on lucid puppy 5.2.8 and another one for 4.3.1 by Makoto. See first post for links to packages

Works fine, thanks! An SFS would be great, too. Oh, and it also works on LP 5.11

easily create your own .sfs
1. install rightclick.pet from here http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=67013
2.right click on the .pet and choose 'extract here' (will extract into the same folder)
3.right click on the extracted folder and choose 'dir2sfs'
4.done

Do I have to load the devx_5.x.sfs for the dir2sfs part?

hi ferro10n

no you don't need the devx loaded to create .sfs's.....

Note.. the latest version of right click.pet can also create .pets as well

Pidgin 2.10.1 is updated for puppy 4.3.1, see first post for pets, thanks to Makoto who compiled and packaged it.

I'll compile for lupu and/or slacko/dpup when I have time

Posted: **Sat 17 Mar 2012, 14:44**

EDIT - ignore everything I just said....I now remember that I am an idiot, running Lucid 5.28, and therefore the packages in the Ubuntu repositories should theoretically work and are updated...

Posted: **Sun 18 Mar 2012, 07:33**

Don't know what did you just edit but I'll be compiling latest pidgin for lupu, and Makoto sent me pets for 431 but haven't yet tried them, will upload them soon too!

Posted: **Sun 18 Mar 2012, 12:04**

I was posting out of curiosity if anybody was working on a Pidgin 2.10.12 pet as there were a few important MSN protocol changes in that one

But I remembered I could theoretically install it from the Ubuntu repositories in Lucid, so I edited my post

Thanks!!!

Posted: **Tue 27 Mar 2012, 20:47**

Is there a version for Racy/Wary? Or a tutorial to compile in Racy/Wary?

Posted: **Sat 31 Mar 2012, 05:51**

Pidgin pets of version 2.10.3 compiled by Makoto updated in first post for puppy 431

Makoto, Dejan, thanks so much. These PETs work fine to me in the latest Wary/Racy, I think they should be in the official repos.

Posted: **Tue 03 Apr 2012, 07:44**

Thanks tons.....the 431 version works like a charm in Fluppy13.

Will that 431 pet for the 2.10.3 version of Pidgin work in Lucid 5.2.8?

They did some major fixes to the MSN protocol in that version so I would rather not be stuck with 2.10.0...?

Posted: **Sun 29 Apr 2012, 22:42**

If you're asking me, I couldn't tell you (I'm not using Puppy 5). It probably couldn't hurt to try, though. Some of the comments above do seem to indicate it works under at least some of the Puppy 5 variations.
