installing phonegaim

[tkrag]

I'm trying to compile phonegaim under mandrake 10.0

 

Phonegaim (http://www.phonegaim.com/) is a version of gaim with support for the SIP voice-over-IP protocol. It's really well done, and is easily the most elegant SIP client for Linux at the moment, but it was developed by Linspire (Lindows) so there aren't binaries for other distro's.

 

I tried to build it on my mandrake 10.0 machine, but I get the following errors when running make:

In file included from gtkblist.c:51:

I've installed libosip0-devel from rpm, as well as linphone from binaries, to see if that would soplve the problem, but it hasn't.

 

Anyone have any success with this?

I noticed that someone at suse managed to compile it, he had to modify linphone as Linspire uses a modified version. I don't code but perhaps a mandrake coder could look at the mods he used to get it to work http://forums.suselinuxsupport.de/index.php?showtopic=4767

Just a follow-up. I installed the rpm's from the above suse link (I use Mandrake 10). It seems to work, however have not yet used voice chat.

 

Cheers, hope it works for you
