Re: can't compile gaim

Hi all,

thank you for your reply. And sorry for not subscribing to the list 
before. I didn't consider it would increase your support load.

I didn't find the other mail you talked about in the archive. For some 
reason the search tool for me hardly ever returns anything if I tell it 
to look through the garnome-list only.

However, your patch worked fine. Thank you! :)
