[gaim-migrate @ 12553] sf patch #991208, from Arun A Tharuvai "Here's a patch, against current CVS, to build and compile zephyr on Windows, with, or without Kerberos 4 Authentication. In order to be built (and run) with Kerberos 4 authentication, the Kerberos for Windows SDK (version 2.6.3 is the current version) (licensed under the MIT license) and runtimes, both available from http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/www/dist/index.html#KFW2.6.3 Also, USE_KRB4 should be set to true in the attached Makefile.mingw As on the UNIX side, an external 'zhm' binary needs to run for zephyr to work. Source and a win32 executable (using code from gaim's libzephyr, and also MIT's zephyr distribution), can be found at http://web.mit.edu/aatharuv/www/zhm-windows.html" I decided not to make zephyr compiled by default in Windows. If you want to compile it, I think you you can modify the root Makefile.mingw or cd to the src/protocols/zephyr/ directory and run "make -f Makefile.mingw" using make from mingw committer: Tailor Script <tailor@pidgin.im>

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.
