Well:

devel at pavilion:~/psi> ./configure-jingle
Configuring Psi ...
Verifying Qt 4 build environment ... ok
Checking for Qt >= 4.2.3 ... yes
Checking for bundled QCA 2.0 ... yes
Checking for OpenSSL ... yes
Checking for zlib ... yes
Checking for certstore ... using bundled
Checking for QDBUS ... yes
Checking for the XScreenSaver extension ... yes
Checking for Aspell support ... yes
Checking for Linux Directory Notification ... yes
Checking for gethostbyname_r() ... yes
Checking for Google File Transfer ... no
Checking for Jingle ... no
Checking for Plugins ... no

Good, your configure finished.  Now run /usr/bin/gmake.

This means that Jingle is not enabled, right?
Can someone tell me, if I would try to make it work with all its bug. How do I 
have to do? Or "Checking for Jingle ... no" just simply means that I have not 
installed Google libraries so Psi will use its Google libjingle?
