{{From|https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Pidgin}} {{Languages|UbuntuHelp:Pidgin}} #title Pidgin Internet Messenger == Introduction == {|border="1" cellspacing="0" |<tablestyle="text-align: justify; width:55%; " style="border:none;" 5%> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Pidgin?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=pidgin.2.png ||'''Pidgin''' is a well-known instant messaging (IM) client for a wide range of protocols, including MSN Messenger, AIM, Yahoo Messenger, Jabber, IRC, IRQ and Gadu-Gadu. It is available in the official Ubuntu repositories, but if you want you can install it from the official website instead. |} Since Ubuntu is focused on stability, you will find that, apart from security updates and bugfixes, the Pidgin in the repositories will generally only be updated to a newer version with every new release of Ubuntu - which occurs approximately every 6 months. == Install Pidgin from repository == The recommended way to install Pidgin is through the official Ubuntu repositories. That way you'll get the supported version. Installing through the repositories is pretty straightforward: * Go to '''Applications''' -> '''Add/Remove...''' * Search for ''Pidgin'' and tick the box with ''Pidgin Internet Messenger''. * Press '''Apply Changes''' and, if asked, enter your password. For more info about how to install software from the repositories, see InstallingSoftware. == Install current release from official website == You may sometimes want a newer version of Pidgin, and to get this, you will have to install it directly from the official website, but '''be aware that like any other application installed directly via a website such a version of Pidgin will not receive updates of any kind through Ubuntu's Update Manager!''' This section will explain the steps necessary to install Pidgin from the official website - in this example it's Pidgin 2.1.1, which, by the way, is already present in Ubuntu Gutsy's repositories. === Prepare for Installation === ==== Removing Gaim ==== Before you start, you have to make sure Gaim, the predecessor of Pidgin, is not already installed. This can be done following these instructions: * Go to '''System''' -> '''Administration''' -> '''Synaptic Package Manager''' * Enter the password for your user account and press OK * Press 'Search', and enter ''gaim'' into the search field * If the ''gaim'' package is selected, then deselect it * Press ''Apply''. ==== Getting the necessary dependencies ==== Now, with a 'clean table', we can proceed. First, you need to install some libraries, which Pidgin will need in order to work: * Go to '''Applications''' -> '''Accessories''' -> '''Terminal''' * Type <pre><nowiki>sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev libxml2-dev gettext libnss-dev libnspr-dev </nowiki></pre> to get the proper dependencies. ===== Optional libraries for extra features ===== * If you wish to include spell checking, add ''libgtkspell-dev'' to that list. * If you wish to include ALSA or OSS for playing sounds, add ''libgstreamer0.10-dev'' to that list. * If you wish to include idle times based on keyboard/mouse usage, add ''libxss-dev'' to that list. === Downloading and extracting Pidgin === Your system should now be prepared to handle Pidgin, so it's time to get the Pidgin source code. This is pretty straightforward: * Download ''pidgin-2.1.1.tar.bz2'' from [http://www.pidgin.im/pidgin/download/source/] * When downloaded, right-click on ''pidgin-2.1.1.tar.bz2'', which should be in your default Downloads-directory, and select «'''Extract Here'''» === Installation === Okay, so now you have all that you need, now it's all about compiling and installing: * Go to '''Applications''' -> '''Accessories''' -> '''Terminal''' * Type <pre><nowiki>sudo apt-get install build-essential </nowiki></pre> to install a build environment (see CompilingSoftware for further information) * Change directory to the newly created ''pidgin-2.1.1'' directory using the '''cd''' command. (If you don't know how to use '''cd''', check [https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/basic-commands/C/ar01s03.html#id2497610 "Commands"] in the [https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04 official Ubuntu documentation].) * When you've navigated the terminal to the ''pidgin-2.1.1'' directory, you have to type in the following in the Terminal: <pre><nowiki>./configure --enable-gnutls=yes </nowiki></pre> (Note: The ''--enable-gnutls=yes'' flag means SSL support will be compiled in, which is required for the MSN and Google Talk protocols.) * Now Pidgin should be configured, and you should see a bunch of output on the screen. After it's finished configuring, it's time to create a makefile. In the same terminal, type: <pre><nowiki>make </nowiki></pre> * Creating the makefile is also going to take a little while, so grab a cup of coffee while you wait :) * When the '''make''' command has finished, it's time to actually install Pidgin. This is done by typing: <pre><nowiki>make install </nowiki></pre> * When it's finished, then you should have Pidgin installed. Congratulations! === Clean up === With Pidgin installed, you have the option of doing a little cleaning up of the files that were created and used doing installation, but aren't used anymore: * While remaining in the same terminal, type in <pre><nowiki>make clean </nowiki></pre> * When finished, type in: <pre><nowiki>make distclean </nowiki></pre> to also remove the files that `./configure` created. == Other info == This section deals with other aspects of Pidgin than installing. === Bugs === Like all software, Pidgin has its share of bugs. However, you can help to improve Pidgin by reporting any bugs you may find. You can find all the currently reported bugs in the Pidgin bugtracker, which is located [http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/OpenTickets here]. To report a bug, you need to do the following: * Go to http://developer.pidgin.im * Click "register" and pick a username and password * Back at http://developer.pidgin.im click "New Ticket" * Describe the bug, and mark what type it is. There are several types: **'''defect''' are problems/bugs in Pidgin **'''enhancement''' is an idea for how to improve the functionality of Pidgin. This corresponds to the "Wishlist" priority on [[UbuntuHelp:Launchpad]] **'''translation''' is for anything that has to do with a translation of Pidgin. E.g. typos in translations of Pidgin **'''plugin request''' is pretty self-explationary: Requests for additional functionality in Pidgin that aren't of "general" interest are generally better off as plugins than parts of Pidgin itself **'''task''' is for anything that doesn't belong in any of the other categories **Skilled users can also report their own patches using the '''patches''' type, but the average user shouldn't need this * In Ticket Properties you should select which part of Pidgin your ticket is about. If you don't understand this, just leave it as '''unclassified''' * Now select the version of Pidgin you are using, and optionally write some keywords to make the ticket easier to find, and lastly click ''Submit ticket''. === Useful links === * http://www.pidgin.im - Official webpage * [http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/FAQ The Pidgin FAQ], which includes help with configuring Pidgin. * [http://planet.pidgin.im/ Planet Pidgin], which contains news and updates on the status of the development of Pidgin. * [http://sourceforge.net/projects/pidgin/ Pidgin on SourceForge] * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pidgin_(software) Pidgin on English Wikipedia] ---- [[category:CategorySoftware]] [[category:UbuntuHelp]]
