Update Information:
BitlBee 3.5.1 (30 Jan 2017) =========================== - purple: Fix crash on
file transfer requests from unknown contacts. This was the result of an
incomplete fix in the previous release and may result in remote DoS. Read the
full security advisory at:
https://bugs.bitlbee.org/ticket/1282 - After some
investigation we decided to reclassify a crash fix from the previous release as
a security issue. Read the full security advisory at:
https://bugs.bitlbee.org/ticket/1281 - Included help.txt in the release tarball,
which was missing in the previous release and resulted in adding python as a
build dependency. The release tarball of 3.5.1 does not require python.

su -c 'yum update bitlbee' at the command line.
