Pidgin not compiling

[Ansuman Mohanty]

Hi,

Thanks for your time!

I am trying to compile pidgin on Backtrack 3 with sametime support.

But it is failing:-

checking for MEANWHILE... no
configure: error:
Meanwhile development headers not found.
Use --disable-meanwhile if you do not need meanwhile (Sametime) support.

There is sametime code in

bt protocols # ls
Makefile.am  Makefile.mingw  gg/   jabber/  msnp9/    novell/  oscar/  sametime/  silc10/  toc/    zephyr/
Makefile.in  bonjour/        irc/  msn/     myspace/  null/    qq/     silc/      simple/  yahoo/
bt protocols # cd sametime/
bt sametime # pwd
/root/pidgin-2.5.8/libpurple/protocols/sametime

What are meanwhile development headers?? how can I get them?

Attaching the config.log file.

Thanks,
Ansuman

Meanwhile is the 3rd party library that we depend on for Sametime
support.  Some Linux distributions have packages for it, or you can
download it from http://meanwhile.sourceforge.net/
