Jabbim client testing & debugging
Help us with Jabbim. These days Jabbim client is under heavy development and it's important that many testers will join and find some bugs. Many testers = quick development.
You can write down bugs and wanted features here, or you can join our MUC (Multi user chat) room jabbim@conf.netlab.cz (please try to use Czech or English here). If Jabbim randomly crashes or does some things it shouldn't do :) please prepare jabbim.log file from program directory. If you show this log to developers, they will probably find out the bug very quickly ;)
Microsoft Windows
Approximately every four hours is there a fresh nightbuild. Download the latest build from http://dev.jabbim.cz/win32-nb/. Archives are in 7zip format, so use your favourite program (e.g. WinRar? can handle these files). After unpacking you can run Jabbim executing Jabbim.exe file.
Other Systems
First step: Install the required libraries:
Ubuntu/Kubuntu 7.10
sudo apt-get install subversion python-qt4 libqt4-core libqt4-gui qt4-qtconfig python-twisted python-pysqlite2
Fedora 9, 10
yum install subversion PyQt4 python-twisted python-twisted-web2 pyOpenSSL
Gentoo
Unfortunately python2.5 is still hardmasked in Gentoo. But don't worry, you can run Jabbim anyway. Install these ebuilds. Update: packages below are from Gentoo testing, they were installed using ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" setting in /etc/make.conf.
emerge dev-python/PyQt4 dev-util/subversion dev-python/twisted dev-python/twisted-names dev-python/twisted-web dev-python/twisted-words dev-python/pysqlite
Second step: Download the latest version using subversion
svn co svn://dev.jabbim.cz/jabbim/trunk
Third step: Run, Jabbim, run!
Yesss, it's here. You are about to run our new Jabbim client. Good luck!
cd trunk ./jabbim.sh
Testing version upgrade
Because of quick development it is recommended to update Jabbim from svn as frequently as you can. You can update previous installed version of Jabbim running this command in jabbim-ng directory:
svn up
