Please help, how to build the libpurple framework?

[周 游弋]

Dear Everyone:

I followed exactly what the Utilities/dep-build-scripts/README said  
but it just wouldn't work. And I got several problems.

First, when I tried to run purple_make.sh, it said that libidn is  
missing. I installed one using macports but it then failed at linking  
stage. It said the libidn is not of requested format so I have to use  
--disable-idn to bypass the idn library.

Then, though compile passed, it didn't generate the proper libpurple. 
0.6.0.dylib, but a libpurple.0.dylib instead, which caused a "can not  
find the file" problem in univerize.sh. So I have to rename the file  
manually.

Yet another problem occurred when executing univerisze.sh, it can't  
find libmeanwhile-1, but the script ran to its end somehow.

And, of course, the frameworks generated wouldn't work at all.

I have spent hours googling and trying to resolve the problem myself  
and still have no answer. Could anyone please help me out?

I am using Leopard 10.5.8, Xcode 3.1, the latest Adium code from  
repository.

Thanks very much!
