Comment (by jeff):

 from Craig Harding earlier:

 Hi,

 I just wanted to try out the plugin (I'm using pigdin 2.0.2) and
 following the instructions correctly on
 http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/MsimInstall

 and then typing make in the myspace dir gives me the following error:

 /usr/src/pidgin-2.0.2/libpurple/protocols/myspace> make
 cd ../../.. && /bin/bash ./config.status
 libpurple/protocols/myspace/Makefile depfiles
 config.status: error: invalid argument:
 libpurple/protocols/myspace/Makefile
 make: *** [Makefile] Error 1

 Not sure if this is fixed in mtn but just thought I'd let you know.
 I'm extracting the src in the libpurple/protocols/ dir and then
 running make within the myspace dir.

 I think maybe you need a prefix (../../../) before the
 'libpurple/protocols/myspace/Makefile' argument that make says is
 invalid.


 ------
 All protocols build correctly (msn, aim, yahoo, irc), I'm following
 the directions on the wiki page. I'm running GNU make.

 I did find a fix though. I guess your config.status file is different
 than mine but I haven't changed it since downloading and compiling
 pidgin. On line 527 in config.status, I added:

  "libpurple/protocols/myspace/Makefile" ) CONFIG_FILES="$CONFIG_FILES
 libpurple/protocols/myspace/Makefile" ;;

 Adding this and then running make doesn't give any errors like before
 but doesn't compile anything:

 $> make
 cd ../../.. && /bin/bash ./config.status
 libpurple/protocols/myspace/Makefile depfiles
 config.status: creating libpurple/protocols/myspace/Makefile
 config.status: executing depfiles commands
 make: Nothing to be done for `all'.
