Packaged for wip by Leonardo Taccari.
irssi-xmpp is an irssi plugin to connect to the Jabber network.
Its aim is to provide a good integration in this text-based irc client
and a good support of XMPP (the Jabber protocol).
Its main features are:
* Sending and receiving messages in irssi's query windows
* A roster with contact & resource tracking (contact list)
* Contact management (add, remove, manage subscriptions)
* Tab completion of commands, JIDs and resources
* Many extensions supported (XEP) including Multi-User Chat (MUC)
* Support for multiple accounts
* Unicode support (UTF-8)
* SSL and STARTTLS support
To deal with the XMPP protocol, it uses of the Loudmouth library.
(This is a security release, but pkgsrc already had patches from
upstream.)
This version corrects two heap overflows reported by our users:
- A small write overflow, reported by Justin Ferguson
- A large read overflow, reported by Ben Hawkes
GnuTLS deprecated gnutils_transport_set_lowat function in version 2.12.0
and finally removed it with version 3.0, breaking any packages that
still reference it.
The lowat feature is now disabled permanently I think.
The patch uses the GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER macro to appropriately conceal
the function reference. The same patch is widely seen on the 'net with
other packages that use GnuTLS.
pkgsrc changes: enable gnutls by default, switch to tar.bz2 distfile
