Re: Bitlbee Patch Help

I don't have bitlbee installed, but I'm using it on testing.bitlbee.org and it works great with AIM and SMS (and has for many months now). I think you just need to grab their latest development version and you won't have to worry about patching it. Or just use it there if you don't really need to install it locally.

Good luck!

Re: Bitlbee Patch Help

If you want to patch it, download the PKGBUILD using "abs extra/bitlbee" and save the patch in a file.
The standard download location is /var/abs/ but you can change it by creating .abs.conf:

ABSROOT=/your/path/

Then change to the directory and add:

patch -i /path/to/patch/file

after the cd command and before ./configure.

Then run makepkg and pacman -U bitlbee-<version>-<architecture>.pkg.tar.gz.

Maybe you have to be root depends on the location of the ABSROOT.
