Installation

Installation on Windows

Download the ZIP file from the latest release and extract the contents of pidgin-protocol-status-icons to your .purple user directory (typically %APPDATA%\Roaming\.purple).

Installation on Linux

If your distribution has the plugin in its repository you can use that. Otherwise you must build the plugin from source.

Building from source

Building on Windows

In order to build the plugin for Windows an already-compiled source tree of Pidgin is required. Please see the Pidgin for Windows Build Instructions for details. The pidgin-windev script does all that.

After that you need to create a file named local.mak that points to the Pidgin source tree, e.g.:

PIDGIN_TREE_TOP=$(PLUGIN_TOP)/../../pidgin-2.12.0

Now you can build the plugin:

make -f Makefile.mingw

Building on Linux

To install the plugin on Linux you need to extract a release tarball and compile it from source:

sudo apt install pidgin-dev
./configure
make
sudo make install

By default the plugin will be installed to /usr/local. If you installed Pidgin through your package manager, it is very likely installed into /usr (i.e. which pidgin returns /usr/bin/pidgin). Use ./configure --prefix=/usr in this case.

When you use the repository directly or one of those auto-generated "Source code" archives, you need to run ./autogen.sh before running ./configure.
