NetBSD laphroaig 4.99.29 NetBSD 4.99.29 (LAPHROAIG) #2: Sun Aug 19 02:38:19 CEST 2007  lars@laphroaig:/home/lars/tmp/current-obj_amd64/sys/arch/amd64/compile/LAPHROAIG amd64

>Description:
When gaim 2.0 beta in pkgsrc-wip became pkgsrc/chat/pidgin, sametime support was lost. It is achieved with the use of the meanwhile library.

I propose importing wip/meanwhile into pkgsrc/chat and adding the following patch to chat/libpurple:

Since sametime is a dwindling protocol I chose to make it an option. For simplicity it should perhaps just be mandatory without the option-stuff in there.

>How-To-Repeat:
Try to use pidgin to connect to a novell samtime network.

>Fix:
Patch appended.
