I was trying to install google talk in Arch linux, i was not finding any proper link which just tells do this and you will get it. so i thought i write it down here so that if any one struggles they can read it from here.
There are two ways of doing it
I. PKGBUILD way
1.Download this file and extract it to a folder.
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/go/google-talkplugin/google-talkplugin.tar.gz
2. add these two repo's to your /etc/pacman.conf (make sure you are root to edit it)
[multilib]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[archlinuxfr]
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/$arch
as root update pacman to refresh its packages.
pacman -Sy , this command will update the database of packages.
3. go to the folder where PKGBUILD was extracted .
Run the following command.
makepkg -s --asroot
This will download the package and install them ( if you don want to run it asroot, then make sure the user you are running it is in sudo users list)
II yaourt method.
To install it throught yaourt method i guess you have to add the two repos i have mentioned above, make sure you add them, and run pacman -Sy to update database.
yaourt -S google-talkplugin
hope this helps :)
