Re: [Monkeymessenger-list] SVN rev 189 bug

[Thiago M. <thi...@gm...>]

I've looked on how banshee does it. It has a definition file, like
Definition.cs.orig that has the variables needed. So when configure runs
it reads it and replaces the variables resulting on Definition.cs which
is used with the compilation. Seems very easy to do :)

For now only myself has access to the svn, but it will change as people
send me nice patches :)

Thanks
