libpurple
is
a
library
intended
to

seeking
to

client
that
connects
to
many
IM
networks
.
It
supports
AIM
,
ICQ
,
and
XMPP
,
among
others
.
Pidgin
is
a
graphical
IM
client
written
in
C
which
uses
the
GTK
+

is
a
text
-

##
BUILD
Pidgin
uses
[
meson
]
(
https
:
//
mesonbuild
.
com
)
as
a
build
system
.
You
can
quickly
build
Pidgin
with
the
following
commands
meson
build
cd
build
ninja
sudo
ninja
install
There
are
quite
a
few
options
for
the
build
that
you
can
view
by
looking
at
`
meson_options
.
txt
`
.
You
can
specify
the
options
when
running
meson
like
the
following
:
meson
-
Ddebug
=
true
build
If
you
've already ran meson you can use `meson configure`
cd build
meson configure -Ddebug=true
## RUN
Currently Pidgin can not be run from a build directory which means you must
install it first. Once you'
ve
done
that
,
you
only
need
to
run
'pidgin'
or
'finch'
.
To
get
started
,
simply
add
a
new
account
.
If
you
come
across
a
bug
,
please
report
it
at
:

##
PLUGINS
If
you
do
not
wish
to
enable
the
plugin
support
within
Purple
,
run
meson
with
`
-
Dplugins
=
false
`
or
if
you
'
ve
already
ran
meson
use
`
meson
configure
-
Dplugins
=
false
`
from
the
build
directory
.
This
will
prevent
the
ability
to
load
plugins
.
`
ninja
install
`
puts
the
plugins
in
`$
PREFIX
/
lib
/
purple
`
(
PREFIX
being
what
you
specified
when
you
ran
meson
.
It
defaults
to
`
/
usr
/
local
`
).
Purple
looks
for
the
plugins
in
that
directory
by
default
.
Plugins
can
be
installed
per
-
user
in
`
~/
.
purple
/
plugins
`
as
well
.
Pidgin
and
Finch
also
look
in
`$
PREFIX
/
lib
/
pidgin
`
and
`$
PREFIX
/
lib
/
finch
`
for
UI
-
specific
,
respectively
.
##

To
generate
the

locally
you
can
pass
`
-
Ddoc
=
true
`
to
`

or
`
meson
configure
`
which
will
build
the
`
gtk

docs
`
for
everything
.
