Change connection.c:gaim_connection_error() to still work even if the
message parameter is NULL. There's no reason to error-out of that
function just because some yuppie didn't pass us an error message.
But we still log a critical message, so those of you at home running
with fatal_criticals will still crash.
I noticed this because Jabber isn't handling <stream:error/> correctly
right now. Anyone else notice this? The code is written to look for
"stream:error", but our xmlnode stuff just sees "error" (even though
the "stream:error" format is sent over the wire). I think it's
because of the libxml change.
To reproduce the problem, sign onto the same resource twice and note
that the error message that Gaim gives you sucks.

This file describes how to compile and run gaim with dbus support. Hopefully, most of the steps from point 3 will soon be automated. 1. Make sure you have the latest version (0.34) of the dbus library installed, including glib bindings. http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/dbus 2. Compile gaim ./configure --enable-dbus make make install 3. Configure your dbus instalation for gaim A. Find your dbus session configuration file, usually /etc/dbus-1/session.conf B. In that file, find the <servicedir> section. This section contains the directory that stores files describing services, usually /usr/share/dbus-1/services C. Copy src/dbus-gaim.service to that directory D. Edit the dbus-gaim.service file you've just copied, and replace the path in the "Exec=" line with the path to your gaim executable. 4. Start Session DBUS if you haven't done it already eval `dbus-launch --session` export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID These commands will set the two above shell variables. These variables must be set before running any dbus-aware programs. Start gaim as usual. To communicate with it, use "gaim-send". When you execute gaim-send, the dbus system will automatically start a gaim process if one is not running already.
