best way to copy a compiled pidgin to another netbook?
Hello, I've compiled pidgin-2.6.2 on my FreeBSD 8-CURRENT laptop and want to install it as well on my netbook EeePC 900 which runs the same OS version. But this is to slow to compile such big stuff on it... Is there some way to make a distribution of the compiled workspace and move it as a tar ball to the EeePC for installation? Thanks in advance for any hint. matthias -- Matthias Apitz t +49-89-61308 351 - f +49-89-61308 399 - m +49-170-4527211 e g...@unixarea.de - w http://www.unixarea.de/ Vote NO to EU The Lisbon Treaty: http://www.no-means-no.eu ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
