gaim-2.0.0beta3 with RendezVous and Meanwhile support

I've recompiled gaim-2.0.0beta3 in order to support rendezvous (aka bonjour) and meanwhile (aka sametime) protocols.

Gaim-meanwhile used to be an extension to gaim and is now part of gaim's core. Bonjour/RendezVous was developped during he summer of code and is now part of gaim since version 2.0.0.

Well, since debuntu now has its own debs repository, the best way to install gaim 2.0.0beta3 with bonjour and meanwhile supports is to simply add the repository to your sources.list. Refer to the debs repository in order to check how to achieve this and then apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade.

Well, hope you like it.

In relation to this, has

In relation to this, has anyone had *success* messaging back and forth over Bonjour with this build?

The best I can get is GAIM spiking to 100% CPU before dumping core.


at first, very thanks for you

at first, very thanks for your job!
well, i've installed and i can set up a new rendezvous account, but when i'm online another pc can "see" me but in the other hand i can't see it, and when the another pc (with windows + miranda + ichat plugin) try to message me, the message didn't reach me... so i haven't be noticed about that message (is lost) why? i don't know...
so i can't use it...
i've installed avahi (the replacement of the howl library)
what do you think about it???


Hi Yuka, Thanks for your rep

Hi Yuka,
Thanks for your reply. I will try to investigate this.
This is rather related to the gaim project, it might be worth filling a bug report.
Check Gaim bug reports from sourceforge. At first sight, this seems to be related to your troubles.
Hope this help.
Cheerio
