Hi,all,
I have tried compiling Dimdim 4.5 in ubuntu these days,the compile process seems ok but it still does not work in my system yet.I'd like to share with you some tips:
1. you can find the document about compile and setup in the folder:/dimdim/Product/Build/Scripts/SF_RPM_Script. two files:readme.txt and Dimdim_SF_CentOS5.2_RPM_Readme_v4.5.txt are useful.
2. Using python2.5 directly instead of 2.4 when following the instruction in the second txt file step by step, and skip "8. Python2.5" accordingly.
3. when in 6.c,you may encounter a error like"sh: curl-config: not found
...exception: please install the libcurl development files",which is relative to the difference of python's setuptools in ubuntu from centOS. pls do as following:
$ sudo apt-get remove python-setuptools
$ svn co 'http://svn.python.org/projects/sandbox/branches/setuptools-0.6/' setuptools-dev06
$ cd setuptools-dev06
$ sudo python setup.py install
$ sudo easy_install

4.Some errors may occur in the C source code when you ant the source(.h file). In my experience ,one was about "memcpy()" because "string.h" was not included,another was about some repeated parameters in a function definition(i forgot the name of the function and the location),which you can get the correct definition in the relative .cpp file.
That's all for compiling. but after compiling, i still can not run dimdim. i have install dimdim in the centOS successfully.i am do some test by copying all the dimdim folder from centOS to unbutu and try to setup it in ubuntu,but it dose not work yet.
If any guy get an advanced step,please share with us.
