for being the first to point this out.
defeating that purpose, use control c to pop up the colour picker
instead. I'm not sure exactly when the gaim people changed this
(somewhere between 0.59.1 and 0.59.3), but I think it's rather ill
advised.
0.59.3 (09/14/2002):
Rob: This really has been made a little early. Of course, we figured
that some of you may like to connect to Yahoo. Sorry about that
little blunder. I blame it on George.
Sean: That was just a silly mistake--there's no need to make George
feel bad! There's also some nice i18n fixes in there by Matt Wilson
from RedHat.
George: Why doesn't anybody love me?
0.59.2 (09/09/2002):
Rob: This time Sean couldn't be with us. I finally got my linux box
some what back in order. Life has been extremely hectic for both Sean
and myself lately, I think. Sean will have his cable connection soon
and my linux box should be completely happy again soon. Thanks to
everyone that kept the patches coming in and organized while we
were busy (chip, luke, robot, etc.)
Curt Sampson. Relevant changes from version 0.59 include:
* Fixed a security bug in the manual browser setting (Thanks Robert McQueen)
* Will work with Perl 5.8 (thanks, Timothy Lee and Dan Colascione)
* Fix for HTTP proxies (thanks, Ethan Blanton)
* Read proxy environment variables. (thanks, Christian Hammond)
* Use the pretty gaim.png for our menu entry.
The new iconv() support has been explicitly disabled for now until I can
get it right across both packages.
gaim-gnome, which will install the GNOME panel applet instead of the stand-
alone client. Based in part on PR 16835 from Julio Merino, with differences
mainly due to the fact that I started this before I was pointed at his PR.

Changes:
0.54 (03/14/2002):
Rob: Well, here we are. 0.54. We got a lot of fun things in this
release. Better working SSI, Image sending, protocol specific
smiley faces, and a whole lot of triscuits. *gobble*
Sean: We fixed a lot of bugs in this one, and probably introduced
a bunch too. ;) We were both really busy, and did all the coding
late at night when we were tired, so if something isn't working,
it's probably just tired code. Enjoy the triscuits!
0.53 (02/28/2002):
Rob: Well, we missed yesterday's release. That's Okay, I head a
nasty headache. You can all just deal. ;-)
Sean: Neat Goodies! Whee!! Oscar got a lot of great additions.
It can do Screen Name formatting, it can save and store your buddy
list on the server, it can do typing notifications in Direct
Connections, and yes, it can receive IM Images! Sending images will
be added in the next release. MSN and Yahoo! can do typing
notification too. Hooray!
all dependencies on packages depending on "png" which contain shared
libraries, all for the (imminent) update to the "png" package.

redefines about which buildlink.mk files would care is BUILDLINK_X11_DIR,
which points to the location of the X11R6 hierarchy used during building.
If x11.buildlink.mk isn't included, then BUILDLINK_X11_DIR defaults to
${X11BASE} (set in bsd.pkg.mk), so its value is always safe to use. Remove
the ifdefs surrounding the use of BUILDLINK_X11_DIR in tk/buildlink.mk and
revert changes to move x11.buildlink.mk before the other buildlink.mk files.
use X11_BUILDLINK_MK as a test value. Generally just reordering the
inclusions so that x11.buildlink.mk comes before the other buildlink.mk
files will make everthing work.

out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.
This feature has many new bug fixes as well as support for Jabber and
Napster. Please read the STATUS file for more information.
