svn diff

The runtime dependency on net-im/pidgin, together with the fact that the shared object is placed in a pidgin specific directory, prevents that this plugin can be ued by other libpurple based clients.

I wanted to used this on my bitlbee server and it dragged pidgin with all dependencies on the server and I had to symlink the shared object into the libpurple directory.

That's why I propose to change this into a libpurple plugin. Pidgin, being libpurple based, can still use the rocketchat plugin.

* Rename net-im/pidgin-rocketchat to net-im/purple-rocketchat
* drop dependency on pidgin, add dependency to libpurple
* place shared object into the correct libpurple directory

While here I updated the plugin to the latest git version and reworded the pkg-descr.

The changes are documented in MOVED and UPDATING. As I am not a native speaker someone should check my spelling and grammar in UPDATING (thanks).

The svn diff I created after running

  svn mv net-im/pidgin-rocketchat net-im/purple-rocketchat

is attached to this PR.

* MOVEDlint.awk: no complains about the line I added to MOVED
* portlint -A: no errors, just a warning regarding the "purple-" prefix
* poudriere testport: ok

Tests I have done:

* I am currently running irc/bitlbee with libpurple backend and this plugin to participate in a rocketchat channel.
* I joined the same channel using net-im/pidgin using this plugin.

Updated svn diff

I updated the patch to fix a typo in MOVED. This patch also add the new SUBDIR the net-im Makefile (and removes the old one, of course).
Comment 2 Tobias Rehbein 2020-03-22 09:29:59 UTC
Although I prepared the patch by calling `svn mv net-im/pidgin-rocketchat net-im/purple-rocketchat`, I wasn't able to apply the patch after preparing a clean ports tree by calling `svn mv net-im/pidgin-rocketchat net-im/purple-rocketchat`.

The way I managed to apply the patch are the following steps:

1) svn cp net-im/pidgin-rocketchat net-im/purple-rocketchat
2) svn patch <path-to-patch>

Diff to apply after "svn mv net-im/pidgin-rocketchat net-im/purple-rocketchat"

I recreated the diff. Now it is possible to apply the patch as expected:

1) svn mv net-im/pidgin-rocketchat net-im/purple-rocketchat
2) svn patch <path-to-patch>

* MOVEDlint.awk: no complains about the line I added to MOVED
* portlint -A: no errors, just a warning regarding the "purple-" prefix
* poudriere testport: ok
