Re^4: Purple/Pidgin perl plugin load error

The latest version of that page is up at http://developer.pidgin.im/doxygen/dev/html/perl-howto.html I believe.

Both of them still use Gaim instead of Purple though.

Regardless, I've seen those pages before and tried the example plugin, but it's actually throwing pretty much the same errors already mentioned above. Which is why I started this thread in the first place :)

If you copy your plugin to ~/.purple/plugins, and then load it from Pidgin (Tools->Plugins), then the error should go away.	[reply]

(Sorry for the really late reply, I didn't have time to work more on this). I just tried this again, and it worked. I could have sworn that finch was throwing the error I was complaining about, which is the whole reason I started to try and use it from the command line to get rid of the error. Weird. Thanks for making me try again though.	[reply]
