Comment (by candsadvertising):

 I tried to apply the patch (pidgin-2.3.0-msn-fname.patch) on Suse 10.2
 AMD64, but I got the following error when running make:

 user.c: In function 'msn_user_set_friendly_name':[[BR]]

 user.c:129: error: expected expression before 'const'[[BR]]

 user.c:133: error: expected expression before 'if'[[BR]]

 user.c:128: warning: unused variable 'cmdproc'[[BR]]

 make[5]: *** [user.lo] Error 1

 etc..

 I'm not a developer, so this is likely my fault. I downloaded the patch,
 and then cut and paste
 the patch over lines 126 thru 141 of user.c, checked permissions were the
 same, then ran configure and make again.

 Can anyone tell me if I did something wrong?
 Thanks in advance for your help.
