We can now build and run pidgin on OSX.
Pidgin requires an X11 server to run.
* Build: Differences Linux and OSX now parameterized
* Darwin: build against gtk2-x11 instead of gtk
* Darwin: disable gtkspell2 (spellcheck)
* Darwin: disable farstream (voice and video)

SASL is required to connect to Freenode on high-abuse networks, e.g. highly
NATed networks or Tor. However, Pidgin only supports PLAIN authorization type,
and Freenode specifically prohibits using anything other than EXTERNAL or
ECDSA-NIST256P-CHALLENGE over Tor. It still allows PLAIN for potentially
problematic clearnet networks, though.
Currently the pidgin plugins wrapper is named
"pidgin-VERSION-with-plugins". Fix it so that it becomes
"pidgin-with-plugins-VERSION".
(And add missing newline at the end of file.)
(My OCD kicked in today...)
Remove repeated package names, capitalize first word, remove trailing
periods and move overlong descriptions to longDescription.
I also simplified some descriptions as well, when they were particularly
long or technical, often based on Arch Linux' package descriptions.
I've tried to stay away from generated expressions (and I think I
succeeded).
Some specifics worth mentioning:
* cron, has "Vixie Cron" in its description. The "Vixie" part is not
mentioned anywhere else. I kept it in a parenthesis at the end of the
description.
* ctags description started with "Exuberant Ctags ...", and the
"exuberant" part is not mentioned elsewhere. Kept it in a parenthesis
at the end of description.
* nix has the description "The Nix Deployment System". Since that
doesn't really say much what it is/does (especially after removing
the package name!), I changed that to "Powerful package manager that
makes package management reliable and reproducible" (borrowed from
nixos.org).
* Tons of "GNU Foo, Foo is a [the important bits]" descriptions
is changed to just [the important bits]. If the package name doesn't
contain GNU I don't think it's needed to say it in the description
either.
* Remove package name
* Start with upper case letter
* Remove trailing period
Also reword some descriptions and move some long descriptions to
longDescription.
I'm not touching generated packages.
