I've only looked at jabber-jit, but I see a couple of problems. It includes a copy of the jabber source in it. when it should use the jabber-dev package. I went through this same problem building the old icq transport for jabber. It seems upstream don't like to link outside the tarball.
and this below. g++ -g -Wall -I. -I../jabberd -I/usr/include -DWPJABBER -I/usr/include -fPIC -c -o jit/server.o jit/server.cpp g++ -g -Wall -I. -I../jabberd -I/usr/include -DWPJABBER -I/usr/include -fPIC -c -o jit/wp_client.o jit/wp_client.cpp jit/wp_client.cpp: In member function `virtual void WPclient::SignalDisconnected(ICQ2000::DisconnectedEvent*)': jit/wp_client.cpp:149: error: `terror' has no non-static data member named ` terror_struct::code' jit/wp_client.cpp:149: error: too many initializers for `terror' make[2]: *** [jit/wp_client.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/buildd/jabber-jit-1.1.6/jit' make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/buildd/jabber-jit-1.1.6' make: *** [build-stamp] Error 2 On Thu, Aug 14, 2003 at 01:20:31PM -0600, Jamin W.
