Installing from a distribution repository ========================================= Many Open Source OS distributions have a ready-made package "pidgin-sipe". Before trying to compile it from the source code yourself, you should try to install this package with the standard installation method provided by your OS. Do It Yourself I: compiling against "pidgin" package ==================================================== If you already have installed the "pidgin" package from your distribution repository and want compile pidgin-sipe from source code yourself, then you need to install the necessary headers first. Depending on your distribution you'll need to install one of the following packages libpurple-dev libpurple-devel For the compilation you'll need to install a C compiler and some of the following packages libtool intltool libglib2.0-dev gettext-devel Now you should be able to compile the source code with ./configure --prefix=/usr make If you get errors then you are missing some required package. After successful compilation you can install pidgin-sipe with: su -c "make install" If you get errors from configure or libtool about version conflicts then you need to regenerate the autoconf files. You'll need these additional packages autoconf automake Now you should be able to regenerate the files with autoreconf --verbose --install --force After that go back to the configure step above. Do It Yourself II: compiling against self-compiled pidgin ========================================================= If you have compiled pidgin from source code yourself then you'll have to specify the correct installation path in configure. Usually pidgin is installed in /usr/local so the following command should work ./configure --prefix=/usr/local The rest of the steps are the same as in the previous section.
