Hey guys, I’ve tried rigorously to install pidgin package and after getting all the dependencies and errors worked out it finally installed. But then upon checking /usr/bin/ it doesn’t appear. Has anyone got pidgin successfully working inside whonix VM?
Furthermore, how can one go about adding a shortcut? I’ve created a .desktop file and then used these instructions but am not sure what the custom menu entry would look like inside the anon-whonix-vm.menu file would look like…
Pidgin
pidgin.desktop
//Do I put the whole path to the .desktop file?

</Menu>
Not sure about Pidgen in particular, but the above shortcut looks alright. Don't need the full path, but verify it's there inside the AppVM.
