FunPidgin patch for Debian’s Pidgin Package

This is a quick patch I whipped up to bring funpidgin to debian’s pidgin.  Applying is pretty simple:

apt-get build-dep pidgin && apt-get source pidgin

cd pidgin-2.4.1

wget http://www.deftly.net/25_fun_pidgin.patch -O debian/patches/25_fun_pidgin.patch

./debian/rules binary

dpkg -i ../*.deb

Just make sure you remove the previous version of pidgin prior to installing the patched version - just for good measure

Nmap and Wget for OS X

I get pretty mad at things like darwin ports / fink - I just don’t like having three versions of perl… things like that .. So I compile packages for myself.. Hopefully you can find them useful as well.  Here are my version of wget and nmap for OS X:

wget-1101

nmap-460

Cheers,

Aaron
