    3 I'm a rising senior at Swarthmore College working as Pidgin's resident "Maintenance Hero" through the [[SummerOfCode2015|2015 Google Summer of Code]]. My main goal is to help get our 3.0.0 release out the door. I also plan to work on [[vv|voice and video]] and end-to-end encryption.

    2020I've been doing my dev work on Ubuntu 15.04 (the most recent release at the moment). Because of that, much of the information below is OS-specific. However, the dependencies' Debian and Ubuntu packages are often very similar or even identical, and the two OSs make up a large share of our user base. Obviously, compatible versions of all dependencies are going to have to be available in the Debian and Ubuntu repositories before 3.0 can be effectively shipped.

I've added `$HOME/env/` to the following environment variables to make it fully usable:

    3638GPlugin is new, and isn't yet included in Debian or Ubuntu's package repos. You therefore have to build from source. Additionally, I wasn't able to find which (if any) environment variable determines the search path for `.gir` files. I therefore grudgingly installed it without my build environment prefix. I've since been told that such an environment variable does exist, though - I'll share it here once I find it.
