Category: None Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Submitted By: dataangel (dataangel) Assigned to: Tim Ringenbach (marv_sf) Summary: Gaim 2.0.1beta is missing autopackage Initial Comment: All of the other usual package types are there, but the autopackage is missing. Seeing as I have none of the other supported distros and don't want to spend a lot of time compiling from CVS, this is the only way to get testing feedback from me and presumably other users. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Bishop (mtbishop) Date: 2006-02-27 18:27 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=10830 So autopackage is a package format add-on to a distro. It's neither .deb or RPM compatible, may or may not track library versions and virtual packages for collections, and most definitely is the sole package manager for no distro, according to the site. So you've got other options if you don't want to take the 20 minutes and roll your own. I think you've been bitten by choosing technologies with more shine than substance, and with gooey centres. Deryni will tell you that you should be the one to add in autopackage support, or sit tight until they need it. The fastest method to resolve this problem is likely to install Gaim the same way /lib/ld-linux.so.2 was installed on your system. I notice that unix PKGs are missing too. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=200235&aid=1386985&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
