Install Pidgin--Installing .bz2 file with konsole
ok i have unpacked the file and i cd it to the konsole ./configure then i use the make command and it always says No Target Specified Stop same with the make install command any tips would be great because it's really starting to frustrate me.

From what I guess, you got a .bz2 file. You either ran "bzip2 -d <filename>", or "tar xvfj <filename>", and it decompressed the archive. You then went into the directory it created, and typed in "./configure". Does a "configure" file even EXIST in that directory? Did you read the installation notes that came with it? |

Isn't pidgin in the repo's?
Try to use the packetmanager. |
yes pidgin is in the repositorys.i was just looking for a newer version but there probably isn't any available for my version.Honestly i have just been looking for a version that will support voice chats.

Please don't start a new thread on the same topic as your earlier one. Since this has replies, I am merging
