Hi David, I think I made some symlinks
Run pidgin usig strace once and look for file accesses in ~/.pidgin or ~/.purple or such This reveals: 4011 open("/home/marc/.purple/plugins", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) 4011 open("/home/marc/.purple/plugins", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) So try symlinking those .so to that location or such. But you're right:we should document it - maybe adding a comment to the pidgin derivation. Of course pidgin could be patched as well. Write a again if this doesn't fix it for you.
