Details

gaim 0.79-2 (not sure when the option disappeared), does not have the option to select X usage for the Away/Idle idle time counter. It only has "Gaim usage" and "None". I've seen this problem before, but don't remember what the solution was. I think it was the absence of some library at build time.
This task depends upon

for some reason, the PKGBUILD has always been missing the --x-includes=/usr/include/X11 option for the configure script. I suppose the original packager has their x headers symlinked to the 'standard' place. please add this option to the build script and update the package. :)

On my install (xorg), /usr/include/X11 is a symlink to /usr/X11R6/include/X11 (is that the 'standard' place?).

now that i look at it, my /usr/include/X11 is also a symlink to /usr/X11R6/include/X11 ... i'm using XFree86. by the 'standard' place, i mean the location that the configure script expects to see the x include files by default. i don't quite know where that is. (i just skimmed through the configure script). Regardless, adding that configure option fixes this bug, i've been using it on my own for some time.

I have not look at this yet but by the sound of it, you are right link. I did not build the last release. (I was away for a few weeks so the other devs helped out in maintaining my pkgs too) I will try to indentify this build time dep and include it in the build script.

As for --x-includes=/usr/include/X11 .. that shouldn't be a problem because if gaim can't find the X headers, the configure script will fail and /usr/include/X11 is the standard location and it is where the script looks for it first. I don't think this is the problem so I'm not going to add this for now. I'm going to rebuild 0.80. If this bug continues, please post here. I will leave this bug open
