Jabber is an open, XML based Instant Messaging system that seeks
to be the standard IM network. It is a distributed system, created
from the ground up, not relying upon central servers. Thus, anyone
can run a server, and they are all interoperable. For assistance
with migrating users to Jabber, many servers feature transports
for interoperating with other IM systems.
Features:
* Message (ICQ-style) and Chat (AIM-style) modes
* Drag and drop to send to multiple contacts
* Full Unicode support
* Secure connections
* Saving contact list locally, and server sync on login
* Icon Themes
* Agent registration and searching
* Retrieving and updating User Info
* Sound support for incoming events
* Auto-away after a configurable amount of time
* Tray/dock icon for KDE/GNOME environments
* Language plugins

Gabber is a Free and Open Source GNOME client for an instant messaging
system called Jabber. Jabber is a Free and Open Source distributed
instant messaging system. It does not rely on a single server, and the
protocol is well documented. Jabber allows communication with many
different instant messaging systems, including ICQ and AIM. There are
several different Jabber clients already, but no other GNOME clients
as of this writing. Hopefully Gabber will serve the purpose of being a
robust GNOME Jabber client well.

Patch contributed by Dawid Szymanski <dawszy@tgr.lubin.edu.pl> in private mail.
Remove `-p' from mkdir arguments, it is already part of ${MKDIR}.
While here substitute a couple of ${PREFIX} by `%D' in
`@exec ${MKDIR} ...' lines and add a couple of missing `%D' in such lines too!
