I think it's a rule that any time I try to sit down to do some Adium work, I'll
spend more time dealing with non-Adium things than actually coding.
In the last 2 days I have:
- Dealt with 2 unrelated build issues on my local system
- Dealt with a long merge issue to maintain a patch that we'd applied to
libpurple's IRC some time ago to provide 'away' status updates
- Subsequently ported it upstream so that others can benefit and we
don't have to worry about that merge issue in the future
- Done it wrong and had to disapprove all the revisions, figure out how
to switch branches in monotone (you can't, I think... you just do a new
checkout on the desired branch), and pluck them to im.pidgin.pidgin.next.minor
(since it adds API)
- Hunted down a change in libpurple (in which the typing flag was cleared
after calling the ui_op for displaying the message) which led to a crash in
Adium when our automatic handling of certain IRC messages caused the
conversation to be closed before the run loop canceled
And now after reading the requisite how-to blog post (for a system which
appears to think it is perfectly reasonable to have steps like, "To push out
your changes for others, `cd .hg/patches` from the root of the repo you
qclone’d and `hg push`." Obviously!) I'm waiting for a fresh checkout of
adium-1.4 with this patch queue. So, did you decide this patch queue thing was
useful?
