-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2010-3029 2010-07-09 05:21:16 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : bitlbee Product : Fedora EPEL 4 Version : 1.2.8 Release : 1.el4 URL : http://www.bitlbee.org/ Summary : IRC to other chat networks gateway Description : Bitlbee is an IRC to other chat networks gateway. Bitlbee can be used as an IRC server which forwards everything you say to people on other chat networks like ICQ/AIM, MSN, XMPP/Jabber (including Google Talk), Yahoo or Twitter!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
- Now always using the AIM-style authentication method for OSCAR connections, even when connecting to ICQ. This solves login issues some people were having. (If you have problems, try changing the old_icq_auth setting.) - Twitter: - Allow changing the Twitter API base URL so the module can also be used for identi.ca or any other compatible network. - Fetch the full list of Twitter contacts instead of slowly adding all contacts as they post a message. - Fixed message length counting. - Allow following/unfollowing people using the usual add/remove commands. - Better error reporting. - Added a user_agent setting to the Jabber module to get around artificial client restrictions. - Allow nick changes (although only before register/identify). - Some more minor bugfixes/etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs. Use su -c 'yum update bitlbee' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/.
All packages are signed with the Fedora EPEL GPG key. More details on the GPG keys used by the Fedora Project can be found at https://fedoraproject.org/keys --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
