-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.
