[gaim-migrate @ 14098] These files don't seem to be using these includes. What's the deal with the leaked bonobo objects when using the evolution plugin? I've also had some crashes caused by the evo plugin that I think are slightly related. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

SILC Gaim Plugin
================

This is Gaim 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 the SILC into Gaim, one needs to first compile and install 
the SILC Toolkit.  It is done as follows:

	./configure --enable-shared --without-silcd --without-irssi
	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 for the Gaim ./configure
script where the SILC Toolkit is located.  It is done as follows:

	./configure --with-silc-libs=/path/to/silc/lib
		    --with-silc-includes=/path/to/silc/include

If the Toolkit cannot be located the SILC will not be compiled into the 
Gaim.
