Compile-tested only.
Jabber is an open XML protocol for real-time exchange of messages and
presence notification between any two points on the Internet. The first
application of Jabber technology is an asynchronous, extensible instant
messaging platform, and an IM network that offers functionality similar
to legacy IM systems such as AIM, ICQ, MSN, and Yahoo.
This is a complete rewrite of the original jabberd.
by moving the inclusion of buildlink3.mk files outside of the protected
region. This bug would be seen by users that have set PREFER_PKGSRC
or PREFER_NATIVE to non-default values.
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES should be ordered so that for any package in the
list, that package doesn't depend on any packages to the left of it
in the list. This ordering property is used to check for builtin
packages in the correct order. The problem was that including a
buildlink3.mk file for <pkg> correctly ensured that <pkg> was removed
from BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and appended to the end. However, since the
inclusion of any other buildlink3.mk files within that buildlink3.mk
was in a region that was protected against multiple inclusion, those
dependencies weren't also moved to the end of BUILDLINK_PACKAGES.

Changes:
0.9.18:
=======
Upgrade release because of couple serious bugs in the 0.9.17. Especially
backup router had stability problems with 0.9.17. This was due to a rekey bug
when performing rekey with PFS, and because of another bug it caused the
backup (and other servers too) to crash. If you are running a normal server
or backup router then ugprading is strongly recommended. If you are running
any kind of server with PFS enabled in rekey, upgrading is recommended.
- Fixed protocol completion handling in connection closing.
- Fixed rekey with PFS to work on backup with disabled connections.
- Fixed CMODE command reply to return the user limit correctly.
- Fixed the watch notify to be called for resuming clients.
0.9.17:
=======
- Implemented the user limit to the CMODE_CHANGE notify and to the CMODE
and JOIN command replies, as defined in the new protocol specs.
- Implemented the public key support to WATCH command, as defined in
the new protocol specs.
- Added asynchronous connecting to remote router/server.
- Fixed the WHOIS public key deleting.
- Several other bugfixes were also made.
o various documentation updates
o ircii now requires an ANSI C compiler (such as GCC) to compile
o new /SET SWITCH_TO_QUIET_CHANNELS that allows SWITCH_CHANNELS binding
to ignore "quiet" channels.
o fixed the --without-emacs-meta-keys option to really be the default
o /hush support in ICB
o new example script ``multichan'' for maintaining multiple server
and channel configurations.
o renamed /ON ICB_MOTD to ICB_CMDOUT and fixed it as well
o removed old "SED" useless encryption
o add /ON TOPIC support for ICB
o builds on solaris out-of-box again
Plugin for IRC client X-Chat which adds an icon in your systray that

Take maintainership. Okayed by wiz.
The 12 identified problems range from simple standard stack overflows, over heap overflows to an integer overflow that can be abused to cause a heap overflow. Due to the nature of instant messaging some of these bugs require man-in-the-middle attacks between client and server. But the underlying protocols are easy to implement and MIM attacks on ordinary TCP sessions is afairly simple task.
Please see http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/012004.html

When you are upgrading from a prior release to SILC Client 1.0.1, there
are two issues you have to take special care of:
First of all the default theme (as defined in the file default.theme in
the source package) has changed. You may need to update your personal
theme to reflect those changes. The second change affects the filename
used to store the session data when /DETACH'ing. If you have detached
from a SILC network with your old client and want to resume the session
with SILC Client 1.0.1, you first have to
/SET session_filename session
After successfully resuming your session, you can revert the setting to
its default "session.$chatnet" again.
Changes:
--------
- /NOTICE and /ACTION command now both take a mandatory target argument
and an option -sign flag. Both work in channels and queries, /IGNORE
now correctly treats both. default.theme has changed, please update
your theme. Closes#1.
- /SILCNET [ADD|REMOVE|LIST] command to manage different SILC networks.
- /SMSG and /MMSG now correctly open new query windows if wished.
- New settings session_filename defines the filename used to store
session information generated by /DETACH. A setting like
session.$chatnet allows you to detach from different networks.
* New Yahoo! auth method
* Yahoo! file transfer (Tim Ringenbach)
* Yahoo! chat joining fixes (Tim Ringenbach)

Changes:
- Added public key based search support to WHOIS command. Users can be
searched by their public key now. To search users by public key using
SILC Client, do the following (see the /HELP WHOIS for revised help
information on searching by public key):
To search nickname 'nick' that has the specified public key, give:
/WHOIS nick -pubkey /path/to/the/public_key.pub
To search all usesr that has the specified public key, give:
/WHOIS -pubkey /path/to/the/public_key.pub

name. Invite strings such as *@sauna.silcnet.org!*@*foobar.com now
works.
- Fixed the CUMODE for founder mode work correctly when there is already a
founder on channel. Normal server cannot anymore "replace" a founder
which is founder on router (even if authentication works). User on
router can "replace" founder that is on normal server assuming
authentication is successful.
- Fixed UMODE mode change bug when anonymous mode was already set. Now
modes can be changed normally.
- Minor fixes to backup router protocol. Some problems may still exist
and testing this feature is recommended.
- Improvements to router-to-router connections. Normal communication
should work. NOTE: This is experimental and you can expect problems
if you set up such network.
- Several other bugfixes.

Main NetBSD changes:
- switched from glib1 to glib2.
- added IRSSI_USE_SSL, defaulting to YES, for ssl server support
- make it possible to disable IPv6
v0.8.8 2003-11-23 Timo Sirainen <tss@iki.fi>
- Just a few fixes to converting old settings automatically
v0.8.7 2003-11-23 Timo Sirainen <tss@iki.fi>
* Settings changes - we have now "time", "size" and "level" setting
types.
- Level settings should work the same as before.
- Time settings can have units: days, hours, mins, secs,
milliseconds (or msecs). The units can be combined and written
in shorter form as well, for example "5d 30m 10ms"
- Size settings can have units: gbytes, mbytes, kbytes, bytes.
They can be written in shorter form as well, eg. "gb" or "g".
Your existing settings should be converted automatically.
+ Pasting detection. All keys except CR and LF are pasted as-is into
prompt in pasting mode.
/SET paste_detect_time controls how closely each others characters
must occur for it to be considered pasting. Paste mode goes on when
first pasted CR/LF is found.
The first line may also contain some command characters. They are
executed, but their action in entry line is reverted once pasting
is detected.
What this means in practise is that even if you have TABs (assuming
TAB is completion key) in the first pasted line, they get pasted as
TABs.
This detection isn't perfect, so if it annoys you it can be disabled
with /SET paste_detect_time 0
+ If pasting more lines than /SET paste_verify_line_count, irssi asks
if you actually want to do that. This should be useful to prevent
accidental copy&paste mistakes. Setting it to 0 disables this
entirely.
+ Support for sending SSL certificate to server and optionally verify
server's certificate. See the -ssl_* options for /SERVER and
/SERVER ADD. Patch by Joel Eriksson.
+ DCC SERVER support by Mark Trumbull
+ Support for DCC sending larger files than 2GB if supported by
operating system (ie. 64bit file support). Receiving has always
been possible, but the statistics were wrong with >4GB files
if 64bit support isn't enabled.
+ Better displaying of DCC file transfer statistics.
- Several other minor fixes and enhancements, see ChangeLog

Changes:
* Small cleanups to prevent mIRC colors in /whois from disturbing
other screen text.
* In some circumstances, /open buddyname could cause multiple
windows to open for buddyname in IRC and Lily. Fixed.
* /groupbuddy will allow Tab completion for existing buddy names.
* (backported from 0.12.0) New $showraw. If non-zero, messages that
are not understood by the protocol drivers will be displayed in the
:RAW window.
* The recvfrom chain no longer stops execution when incoming
private/public messages are displayed. This allows hooks from
modules to have a weight heavier than 150.
* In some situations, AOL's servers can forcibly remove you from
chat rooms. naim will now automatically rejoin them, re-creating
them if need be.
* More small cleanups in the HTML renderer.
* The dtime() routine did not allocate enough space for some
possible strings, causing displeasing truncation. Fixed.
* In certain situations, $-variable expansion could result in an
improperly-terminated string, causing out-of-bounds memory access. Fixed.
Changes:
- disable perl support. it's broken and needs patches for lang/perl5[8] which
won't be applied during the freeze
1.0:
====
- Help file updates.
Changes:
- Fixed the file transfer (see /HELP FILE) session accepting and closing.
- Fixed nickname formatting to not mess the /NAMES command output.
- Fixed MIME header parsing to not show extra characters in the MIME type
name.
- Several other bugfixes were made.
- Removed RC6 algorithm from distribution.
- Added /LISTKEYS help file (see /HELP LISTKEYS).
- Implemented optimized RSA algorithm for faster private key operations.
Private key operations are now at least 30% faster. Note however that,
this optimization works only with newly generated key pairs.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to transfer the old private key to
the new optimized format. There is no compatibility issues with old or
new private keys (new private keys work with older SILC Clients as
well, but they are slower to use).
- Implemented support for searching users in the network by their public
keys using WHOIS command. Note that, this feature will work only with
upcoming SILC Server. Current SILC Server 0.9.15 or older does not
support this feature.
See the /HELP WHOIS for revised help information on searching by
public key. Examples:
To search nickname 'nick' that has the specified public key, give:
/WHOIS nick -pubkey /path/to/the/public_key.pub
To search all usesr that has the specified public key, give:
/WHOIS -pubkey /path/to/the/public_key.pub
This search feature is the first search feature that uses the
Requested Attributes in WHOIS to base on the search or to narrow down
the searched values.
- added dependency on p5-File-MMagic if perl support enabled (for MMSG
support)
Changes:
- Fixed race condition between silc_client_init and my_silc_scheduler.
- Take reference of the socket in the parser context, as it's possible
to have the parsers in queue after the socket is disconnected and this
may cause crash.
- Check that packet queue purging was successful.
- Optimized the socket referencing in packet routines.
- Resolve the IP for file transfer listener from the connection socket.
- Added LISTKEYS command which can be used to list server and client
public keys from the ~./silc directory. See /HELP LISTKEYS.
- Improved the MMSG command. It now supports the target so it can be used
to send private messages too without opening a windows. It also
detects the MIME type now automatically. Support for digitally signing
the messages was also added. See /HELP MMSG, the help file is there
now. :) Replace the old silc-mime.pl script with the new one to take
advantage of all new features.
- Added /MMSG command help file.
This release focuses especially fixing the remaining MAC failed errors that
people have been experiencing and the infamous Error in select() error which
should now finally be gone. Upgrading is strongly recommended.
Changes:
- Fixed KICK command to not send the command reply twice.
- Fixed the QoS unregistering to avoid the errors in select() for invalid
socket connection.
- Fixed the rekey protocol timeout handling
- Fixed the packet processing to avoid clearing QoS data underneath the QoS.
Summary of changes from 0.11.6.2 to 0.11.6.3 [2003-10-29]
============================================
[pkg fea] More Makefile rewrites for improved compatibility.
[FT bug] Long-standing connection-deletion routine has been addressed. This
is a partial backport of the complete rewrite for 0.12.
[FT fea] Incoming messages containing links to www.candidclicks.com are
automatically ignored and the sender is automatically warned.
[FT bug] Several memory leaks have been corrected.
[Lil bug] When someone retitles a discussion, a window would be opened for
it even if you were not a member. Fixed.
[Lil bug] Potential buffer underflow in signon code identified. Fixed.
[Lil fea] New line-receiving code backported from 0.12.
[Lil fea] New line-parsing code backported from 0.12.
[UI bug] Potential use of uninitialized buffer in statusbar code
identified. Work-around implemented.
[UI bug] If two windows had identical presentations due to modifying
$nameformat/$nameformat_named, Tab would stop working. Fixed.
[UI bug] When leaving a chat generated an error, partial stack corruption
occurred. Fixed.
[UI bug] Double-join protection kept users from joining channels with an
open window that they were not actually inside. Fixed.
[UI bug] Potential heap corruption from realloc()ing a string and then
copying it into itself identified. Fixed.
[UI FEA] New key-handling code dramatically improves responsiveness for
laggy connections and when pasting large blocks of text.
Changes:
- Fixed a crashbug that occurred frequently when joining and leaving
channels.
- Fixed a crashbug in secure file transfer.
- Several other bugfixes were made.
- Introduction of multimedia message sending and reception. A perl script
silc-mime will introduce a new command MMSG, which can be used to send
MIME messages. This enables users to send for example images and other
messages. The SILC Client will automatically launch the application
that is able to view the message.
To start the script give command /script load silc-mime. It will try
to find a mailcap file which defines the MIME types and applications
that can show the MIME messages. If you want to receive MIME messages
you will also need to load the script.
To send a messages use /MMSG command. Give for example
/MMSG -channel foobar /path/to/file.gif to send a GIF image to channel
foobar. A shortcoming in the MMSG command makes it impossible to send
private messages without first opening a window for the query. This
will be fixed later.
The package does not work with MSN any longer due to protocol changes,
and the last activity on the author's part was about 19 months ago,
according to cvsweb.
Requested by Ben Collver, the maintainer.
Selected changes since 0.11.6.1:
* When supplied with an extra-long nickname on sign-on, some IRC
servers silently truncate the nickname to fit into their limits.
This confused FireTalk. Fixed.
* The /topic command sent a non-existent /TOPIC command to the
server instead of the proper /RETITLE command. Fixed.
* Several Makefiles have been rewritten for improved compatibility.
* Potential buffer overflow in spelling correction code identified.
This is thought to be responsible for several reports of the
recvfrom chain "losing" its hooks, stopping incoming messages from
being displayed to the user. Fixed.
* Small improvements to the HTML renderer.
caused the Yahoo plugin to stop working. Other bugfixes are also included
as well (as I could see, locales are installed again, the main window appears
properly, while in the previous version it got hidden misteriously, etc).

Fixes PR pkg/23173 (connection problems to MSN); initial patch provided by
Matthew Luckie in private mail.
This version is a major upgrade release and everyone running older version is
strongly recommended to upgrade to this version. This version introduces
several bugfixes, security fixes and bunch of new features. This also
completes the development work for the SILC protocol version 1.2.
Changes:
- removed patch-ac, merged into distribution
- create server keys with strict permissions
0.9.14:
=======
- Several bugfixes and security fixes were made. A major remote exploit
was also fixed.
- The SILC Server now ignores SIGXFSZ and SIGXCPU signals which will
terminate the process if they occur. They can occur in poorly
configured environment.
- Fixed SERVER_SIGNOFF notify handling which caused ghosts to remain in
the network.
- Fixed inviting and banning by public key. Fixed invite and ban string
handling. Implemented SILC 1.2 complying invite and ban data
distribution between routers and servers. To also comply with SILC 1.2,
prohibited using '@' and '!' characters in invite and ban strings.
- Support for channel public keys added. A new feature in SILC 1.2, that
allows join authentication using digital signatures. Use the latest
SILC Client to take advantage of this feature.
- Support for SILC 1.2 backup protocol. This version introduces rewritten
version of the backup router protocol. The purpose of the backup router
protocol is to prevent servers from splitting from the rest of the SILC
network if the primary router becomes unresponsive. There are no
changes to the configuration of the backup router support, and old
configurations will work with this version too.
This version is now able to detect much better different network failure
situations and understand how to work with them. The servers are now
able to actually detect when the backup router can/must be used. They
are also able, in case of error in backup router protocol, to resume
back to either to the backup router or to the primary router, and always
recover from desyncs automatically (usually within 60 seconds).
- Support for command reply error arguments was added. This allows
clients to better handle error conditions within command execution.
- The founder public key distribution now complies with the SILC 1.2.
Changes:
- remove patch-ab, merged into distribution
- cleanups in Makefile
0.9.13:
=======
- Lots of bugs was fixed. Also several security bugs has been fixed.
- Inviting and banning now works with a public key. Fixed also banning
with nickname (example, /ban +nickname).
- Support for channel public key authentication added. The CMODE command
has a new option 'C', which can be used to add and remove channel
public keys on the channel. The channel public keys work the same way
as the channel passphrase. Only the person posessing the corresponding
private key of the public key added on the channel is able to join the
channel. It is possible to add multiple channel public keys to the
public key list.
Give /HELP CMODE to see how to use the command. If the /CMODE +C is
given without arguments you will get list of current channel public
keys. This feature works only with new SILC Server 0.9.14 an newer.
You will also need to be channel founder.
- Automatic lag detector, to detect lag between your client and your
server. The lag (if any) is displayed on the status bar.
- /ME, /ACTION and /NOTICE now fully supports UTF-8 text messages.
- Using '@' and '!' characters in invite and ban strings is prohibited.
Those characters cannot be anymore used as part of invite and ban
strings.
- Better caching of old channel keys (for period of 10 seconds) to avoid
loosing any channel messages.
Patch provided by Martin Hauseman with help from Faried Nawaz, the author.
Should close PR 21620.
While here, merge misplaced patch files.
Bump revision to 2.
curses.buildlink2.mk. This was wrong because we _really_ do want to
express that we want _n_curses when we include the buildlink2.mk file.
We should have a better way to say that the NetBSD curses doesn't
quite work well enough. In fact, it's far better to depend on ncurses
by default, and exceptionally note when it's okay to use NetBSD curses
for specific packages. We will look into this again in the future.
* Added Contact (aka Person, aka Meta-Contact, aka Buddy Merging, etc)
support

* Yahoo ignore support (Jesse Farmer (farmerje))
* Yahoo idle times displayed, long buddy lists work, sms users,
and other improvements (Tim Ringenbach)
* The accounts window now shows offline accounts as greyed out, and
online accounts as colored.
* Fixed the text replacement plugin.
* Fixed all known signal problems in perl.
* The right-click menu for conversation tabs now shows the tab icon
and status, if tab icons are enabled. (Jesse Farmer)

Sync DESCR, COMMENT and HOMEPAGE with reality.
Patch provided by Soren Jacobsen <snj@pobox.com> in PR pkg/22926.
Changes since 0.11.6:
* Packages are now compressed with bzip2 rather than GNU zip.
* (backported from 0.12.0) /names now displays the entire, correct
list in all situations, including initial join.
* (backported from 0.12.0) Unhandled numerics used in WHOIS now show
up in /whois output.
* AIM Directory entry is now forced clear on connect.
* Messages that are too long to send are now rejected.
* Messages that have been rejected by a protocol driver (for example
because they are too long) are returned to the sender.
* (backported from 0.12.0) The idea of a "generic" window has been
removed, and you can no longer /delbuddy someone with an open window
(you must /close the window first).
* (backported from 0.12.0) New $nameformat and $nameformat_name to
control the format names appear as in the window list window, and
elsewhere.
* (backported from 0.12.0) New $autosort. 0 means no window list
sorting, 1 means sort by name, 2 means sort into groups, then by
name (this obviates the --enable-experimental-buddy-grouping option
to ./configure)
* New /status command, including naim version and information about
window status.
* Online help for /save did not show the file name argument. Fixed.
* SIGHUP now re-reads .naimprofile by default.
* Possible reference to free()d memory in certain uncommon
situations pointed out by Michael Wilson. Fixed.
* (backported from 0.12.0) /jump now accepts connection:window
syntax (/jump EFnet:#naim works the same as /EFnet:jump #naim).
* /open now takes you to newly opened windows, removing the need to
/jump after /open.
* /closeall now skips windows with queued messages pending.
* Potential NULL pointer dereference in Tab completion found. Fixed.
* The protocol drivers already take care of populating empty buddy
lists when that was a problem, so naim no longer adds you to your
own buddy list if you don't have one at startup.
* Various cleanups in the HTML renderer to handle stacked tags with
missing close tags.
Changes:
- Updated translations (ca, fi, lt, nl, sk, sv, zh_CN).

- Connect to URL given on commandline even if 'No Serverlist on
Startup' is off [804648].
- Fixed problem in allocating colors while in 8bit PseudoColor.

$_[1...x], with $_[0] left for compatibility (Lian wan Situ).
- Perl: added command_with_channel command (Alexander Werth)
