1. jhbuild build gnome-boxes gave this error:

/opt/gnome/lib/libvirt-gobject-1.0.so: undefined reference to `gvir_init_check@LIBVIRT_GLIB_0.0.7'
/opt/gnome/lib/libvirt-gobject-1.0.so: undefined reference to `gvir_set_error_literal@LIBVIRT_GLIB_0.0.7'

make: *** [all] Error 2
*** Error during phase build of gnome-boxes: ########## Error running make -j 8 *** [1/1]

How to fix: This problem occurred because I had installed another version of libvirt-glib on my computer and strace showed that libvirt-gobject pick’s up the older version (not the one installed with JHBuild). Uninstalling libvirt-glib (the one that I installed) and removing everything connected with it from /usr/local/lib solved this.
If you have not installed another version of this package then a simple clean and then again build/install.

2. Running gnome-boxes in terminal gave this error:
gnome-boxes: error while loading shared libraries: libclutter-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
while running jhbuild run gnome-boxes showed this:
gnome-boxes: /usr/local/lib/libosinfo-1.0.so.0: version `LIBOSINFO_0.0.6′ not found (required by gnome-boxes)

How to fix: This error has also occurred because of another installation of libosinfo. So the solution is the same: uninstall libosinfo and remove files form libosinfo from /usr/local/lib

3. The next error that I received running jhbuild run gnome-boxes was:
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module “pk-gtk-module”
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module “canberra-gtk-module”

How to fix: Having another version of gtk+ installed on your computer makes this error happen. Uninstall it and remove the files.

4. After uninstalling and removing everything that I had installed on my own jhbuild run gnome-boxes showed this:
GLib-GIO-Message: Using the ‘memory’ GSettings backend. Your settings will not be saved or shared with other applications.

How to fix: jhbuild build dconf

5. I thought that everything is fixed and now I can work, and running jhbuild run gnome-boxes showed no error. Finally the program was started but there was no UI, just a blank white screen. The thing that occurred to me was to run gnome-boxes in terminal, and this error showed:
(gnome-boxes:6634): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: Settings schema ‘org.gnome.boxes’ is not installed

How to fix: jhbuild build gsettings-desktop-schemas

Now everything works just fine.

git clone git://git.gnome.org/gnome-boxes

Running ./authogen.sh showed this:

Next step was handling this requirements. But there was still a problem with libvirt-gobject-1.0, libvirt-gconfig-1.0 and spice-client-gtk-3.0.

The solution to this problem is the libpcup package. Upgrading it makes things incompatible. So the version of libpcup should be 1.2.1-1, and that will fix everything. Just configure pacman not to upgrade this package.

This how my patch look like:

Here is what I had to do:
* reset the patch
* see that your changes: git status
* type: git add -p and this will take you to this:

(following the instructions you can let the rows to stay changed or remove the rows that you didn’t change)
* when you have only the rows that you need you can make git commit
* format patch: git format-patch HEAD~1
And that’s it. You have what you need. 

I downloaded the PKGBUILD and empathy.install files from the wiki
( http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk?h=packages/empathy), put them in a folder and open terminal. There you enter the folder and write makepkg.

Makepkg is used for compiling and building packages suitable for installation with pacman, Arch Linux’s package manager. makepkg is a script that automates the building of packages; it can download and validate source files, check dependencies, configure build-time settings, compile the sources, install into a temporary root, make customizations, generate meta-info, and package everything together.

So I after I wrote makepkg I’ve got the list of the missing dependencies. I only missed telepathy-farstream and libchamplan.

The next thing I did was to download the PKGBUILD files of these dependencies. Again open the folder in which you put the PKGBUILD file for the dependence that you want to build and open terminal, enter the folder and write makepkg. This also will give you the dependencies for the package.

If you are not missing anything, you have all the dependencies that you need, the package builds successfully, a package file (pkgname-pkgver.pkg.tar.xz) will be created in the working directory. To install it you should run (as root):

# pacman -U pkgname-pkgver.pkg.tar.xz

or instead of this you can use:

$ makepkg -i
(it has the same role).

After this in the folder where you have putted the PKGBUILD and empathy.install file and the
pkgname-pkgver.pkg.tar.xz file there will be new folders. In the src folder you can find the folder with the empathy code.

If you are makeing some changes to the code and want to compile it, everything you have to do is enter the src folder, than empathy and you can run the standard commands as ./configure, make, sudo make install.

One more thing if you already installed new dependencies and still doesn’t work all you have to do is to change the path with this command:

$export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkg_config

the path should containt the place where you have installed the dependencies.

I’m so sorry that I don’t have screenshots to make this more understandable but I hope that this will be somehow useful.

И конечно еве нешто паметно од моја страна. First All Women Hacker Night во нашиот Хаклаб “КИКА”.

Идејата се појави пред одредено време кога на канал стана збор за жени девелопери од Остин, Тексас кои што си организирале една ваква собиранка. Па мојот одговор на тоа беше зошто не и ние.Услови имаме, па зошто и да не ги искористиме. Да… не нема во голем број во КИКА, но може да се потрудиме да се собереме барем на една вечер и да ја направиме продуктивна. Доволно е да имаме желба. Добредојден е секој кој сака да работи и го интересира нешто. Услови нема (освен нормално полот ). Може ова да го искористиме и како прилика да се презентира сето она за што се залага КИКА. Би биле добредојдени и оние кои едноставно ги интересира што се случува во онаа сива зграда на улица “Жележничка” каде се вее пиратското знаме. Ова би било добра прилика да си разменеме мислења и искуства меѓу себе. Да покажеме дека и ние може да поминеме една вечер покрај нашите компјутери правејќи нешто продуктивно, а не само во муабет и кафе.

Затоа предлагам на 13.07 (среда) да се собереме во просториите на хаклабот. Сите оние кои што ги интересира што е хаклаб КИКА, што се случува таму, активности и планови може да најдат повеќе информации на викито: http://wiki.spodeli.org. Сие што се заинтересирани може да ме контактирате мене на jovanka.gulicoska@gmail.com или на Тамара Атанасовска на маил tamara.atanasovska20@gmail.com

Девојки компјутерите во раце и да го завземеме хаклабот барем на една вечер.
