[SOLVED] Google Voice and Video plugin

Cheers,

I want to use my gmail account to voice/video chat within the browser. There are packages available for debian, ubuntu, fedora and suse and I'm wondering how to install the plugin for arch?

If this is not possible, could you please point me to an alternative tool / programm?

TIA,
Oliver

Re: [SOLVED] Google Voice and Video plugin

I receive an error when makepkg -s the AUR file:

Fehler: Ziel nicht gefunden: lib32-alsa-lib
(which means something like Error: Target not found: lib32-alsa-lib)

Alsa is installed into /usr/lib/alsa-lib

Any help appreciated!

Re: [SOLVED] Google Voice and Video plugin

Once you familiarize yourself with AUR you may want to automate things like dependency resolution via https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Aur_helpers

Fehler: Ziel nicht gefunden: lib32-alsa-lib

Use 'LC_MESSAGES=C foo' where 'foo' is the command you're executing to get messages printed in English.

Output for the Polish locale (my default):

[karol@black ~]$ sudo pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizowanie baz danych z pakietami...
 core jest już w najnowszej wersji
 extra jest już w najnowszej wersji
 community jest już w najnowszej wersji
 xyne-any jest już w najnowszej wersji
...

and now with 'LC_MESSAGES=C':

[karol@black ~]$ sudo LC_MESSAGES=C pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
 xyne-any is up to date
...
