Pidgin

Skype Integration

sudo pacman -S pidgin skype 
sudo packer -S skype4pidgin-svn

Configuration is fairly self explanatory from there. You may have to sign in with your skype account first. Inside skype itself. You'll want to set up skype so that it is started silently in the system tray.

If you get an error: Attempt to Unlock Mutex that was not locked it is because of a changed behavior in libpurple. Recompiling skype4pidgin should resolve the issue

### You can resolve this simply by updating skype4pidgin
packer -S skype4pidgin-svn

### Alternatively, you can compile the source yourself
cd /home/ABS
svn checkout http://skype4pidgin.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ skype4pidgin-read-only

make clean install
