[request] Gaim 1.2.0

New version of Gaim is out.

Don't seem to have an old PKGBUILD to work from... anyone?

Re: [request] Gaim 1.2.0

tmadhavan, this is because it is an official pacman package. And it has been flagged as out of date: http://archlinux.org/packages.php?id=4226

That it has been flagged out of date means a new package should be available via pacman -S gaim soon. If you can't wait that long you can get the old PKGBUILD by running

abs

and then grabbing the PKGBUILD from /var/abs/network/gaim.

Cheers guys, thought it was official, just wondered if it was worth mentioning.

Peace.

Yo Dusty, what do I do with the pkgbuild? Do I need to makepkg, or can I just edit the pkgbuild and run pacman -Syu?

Gonna go give it a crack both ways anyway, just for peace of mind

run makepkg, then install the new package with pacman -U [package name].

With gaim 1.2.0 I can't connect to ICQ, mind. Weirdness.
