There is seagull-hg and other dependencies are also -hg. It also needs libspelling.

But then after all this, it complains about a missing runtime dependency, shoes, which really is not packaged. Probably this one: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=108835 http://shoesrb.com/ However, this is not needed for it to run.

And wrong version for gplugin: Dependency gplugin found: NO. Found 0.45.0-dev but need: '<0.45.0' ; matched: '>=0.44.2' So I added --force-fallback-for=gplugin removed gplugin-hg from dependencies and removed the package as well, and finally it built, installed and ran.

Probably gplugin-hg can be fixed, so the later half isn't needed

No seagull package on aur or arch repos 😓

I meant to make xeme but I get sidetracked

2025.03.27 -- I couldn't get the package to build last month, but manually rebuilt paru -S birb-hg and paru -S xeme-hg before paru -S pidgin-hg using the PKGBUILD below and it installed.

This worked for me 2025.01.04 -- I couldn't get arch-meson to work so I just used meson directly. (requires pango >= 1.55 which you will have to install manually until it enters the main repo)

refuses to configure, as old options are in PKGBUILD.
