[gaim-migrate @ 14425]
Change /core/savedstatus/current and /core/savedstatus/idleaway
to ints (they used to be strings, where the value was the title of a
GaimSavedStatus).
The value is now equal to the "creation" timestamp of a saved_status.
The creation timestamp is used as the unique key. The primary reason
for this is to allow for saved statuses to have NULL titles. NULL titles
are needed for transient statuses. I also added a "last_used" timestamp.
This all paves the way for keeping track of recently used statuses

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.
