Description R.Mahmatkhanov 2011-06-23 20:30:13 UTC
net-im/gnome-jabber should be marked as BROKEN and DEPRECATED. It's because:

a) it doesn't build for me on -current (i didn't test 8-stable):
"""
libtool: link: require no space between `-L' and `-lXss'
gmake[2]: *** [gnome-jabber] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/net-im/gnome-jabber/work/gnome-jabber-0.4/src'
gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/net-im/gnome-jabber/work/gnome-jabber-0.4'
gmake: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
*** Error code 1
"""

b) project was superceded by net-im/gossip (dead now too) and no new releases was produced since 2004. 
http://gnome-jabber.sourceforge.net/
"""
[28/10/05] - Gnome Jabber a dead project!
Gnome Jabber has not been developed for some time now and since I moved over to work on Gossip and am now one of two maintainers on the project I am dropping any support for Gnome Jabber.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

Agreed even though that I knew it's an easy fix, but not interest to fix on 
something that isn't maintaining by upstream.
