SILC Purple Plugin ================== This is the Purple protocol plugin of the protocol called Secure Internet Live Conferencing (SILC). The implementation will use the SILC Toolkit, freely available from the http://silcnet.org/ site, for the actual SILC protocol implementation. To include SILC into Purple, one needs to first compile and install the SILC Toolkit. It is done as follows: ./configure --enable-shared make make install This will compile shared libraries of the SILC Toolkit. If the --prefix is not given to ./configure, the binaries are installed into the /usr/local/silc directory. Once the Toolkit is installed one needs to tell Purple's ./configure script where the SILC Toolkit is located. It is done as simply as: ./configure if pkg-config is installed in your system. If it is isn't it's done as: ./configure --with-silc-libs=/path/to/silc/lib --with-silc-includes=/path/to/silc/include If the SILC Toolkit cannot be found then the SILC protocol plugin will not be compiled.
