-  Make sure you have gettext <= 0.10.40 or gettext >= 0.11.3, autoconf 2.11 or
-  >= 2.53, and automake >= 1.4px (tested up to automake 1.6.3). If you are
-  still having problems, make sure that your gettext package includes the
-  program gettextize (for gettext <= 0.10.40) or autopoint (for gettext >=
-  0.11.3). If it does not, look for another package.
 
-  We don't support gettext 0.11.0 through 0.11.2 or 0.12.1. It may work for
-  you, but we make no promises.
+  Make sure you have relatively recent versions of automake, autoconf, and
+  gettext. HOWEVER, generally speaking, having the absolute newest of them is
+  not as good as having one version short of newest since we might not have
+  found work-arounds for the latest set of changes. Also, some versions of
+  automake require certain ranges of gettext versions, and we are utterly
+  unable to keep track of what versions will work with what other versions.
 
-  If you are using autoconf 2.50+, do not use a version of gettext lower than

   libtgtkspell.so.0 is provided by gtkspell. This library is used by Gaim to

   gtkspell at freshrpms.net. You can find the source and a non-Red Hat specific
   RPM at gtkspell.sourceforge.net.
 
-1.3  How do I get sound to work correctly?
- 
-  Gaim 0.60 and higher support playing sounds via libao. Playing sounds

+1.3  Is there some way I can compile just Gaim, without all of these protocols?
 
-  `Libao is a cross-platform library that allows programs to output PCM audio
-  data to the native audio devices on a wide variety of platforms. It currently

-
-  To compile Gaim with support for libao you need libao-devel and

-1.6  I have a question about GTK1.2.
- 
-  Our GTK2 port is now complete, the 0.59.x release series uses only GTK1.2,
-  and it is also entirely devoid of new features. 0.60 is the first release
-  with GTK2 support. 0.60 and all future Gaim versions will no longer support
-  GTK1.2. With the release of 0.60, the gtk1-stable tree that the 0.59.x
-  releases were from has been discontinued. If you want anything new in that
-  tree, you will have to maintain it yourself.

-  665 at our SourceForge Forum.
+  As of version 0.60, Gaim has been completely converted to using GTK+2.0. We
+  really really really recommend using the most current version of Gaim and not
+  a GTK+1.2 version of Gaim. However, if you are living in the '90s, or you're
+  afraid GTK+2.0 will insult your mother, you can use Gaim 0.59.x, which is
+  GTK+1.2 based. We should warn you though, the 0.59.x releases haven't had new
+  features since the middle of 2002. Also, the 0.59.x releases aren't
+  breathtakingly beautiful.

+1.7  How do I apply the xxxx patch (name.diff)?
+
   Type patch -p0 < name.diff from inside the gaim directory. If that doesn't
   work, try patch -p1 < name.diff.
 
+1.8  Why is gaim crashing when I start it?
+
+  First of all make sure you are using the most recent version of Gaim. If you
+  still have problems, try the things in the following list:
+
+    * Try running gaim with GDK_USE_XFT=0 set (type that in a terminal and then
+      run Gaim from the same terminal).
+    * If gaim is not crashing, but is just sitting there not displaying
+      anything, try turning off anything else that might be using the sound
+      device (ie xmms) and then starting gaim. If this fixes the problem, it is
+      a libao issue, not a gaim issue, and can be worked around by the use of
+      esd or arts.
+    * Try disabling or deleting any 3rd party plugins, especially anything
+      related to encryption.
+    * If you use 0.75 on win32, try deleting tcl.dll.
+    * If you use 0.70 or lower, make sure only one version of Gaim is
+      installed.
+    * If you use 0.67 and do not have yourself on your buddy list, upgrade.
+    * If you have ever installed 0.65, edit your ~/.gaimrc, changing your auto
+      away preference from -1 to 0.
+    * If you use MSN, and have a version 0.64, downgrade to 0.63 or upgrade to
+      0.65.
+
+1.9  Gaim CVS is buggy. Gaim <non-current version> is buggy.
+
+  Yes, it is! CVS is often unsupported by Gaim, as are non-current versions.
+  This is because non-current versions have old bugs which may be fixed in the
+  current version, and CVS is frequently unusable because of the changes in the
+  code (and it has new bugs). If you are using either and have a problem,
+  upgrade/install the current stable version of Gaim before posting a bug or
+  asking for help in Gaim's IRC channel. If the bug does not exist in the
+  current version, then please do not ask for help.

-  Accounts button on the start screen) to add the account. The appropriate
-  protocol plugin is loaded automatically.
 
-  In Gaim 0.59 and lower, you must first load the protocol plugin for the
-  protocol that you want to use. These plugins come with Gaim, so just go to
-  the Plugins dialog (Tools->Plugins, or the Plugins button on the start
-  screen). The list of plugins on this screen is a listing of plugins you have
-  already loaded and does not included unloaded but available plugins. To load
-  a new plugin, click "Load." The protocol plugins are named libprotocol.so, so
-  MSN for instance is provided by libmsn.so, and Gadu-Gadu is provided by
-  libgg.so. Now you can use the Account Editor to add an account with the
-  desired protocol.

-  If you use Yahoo with Gaim 0.59.8 or lower, you need to upgrade. Yahoo
-  changed the protocol in a way that broke Gaim, Trillian, Everybuddy, and
-  their own linux client.
+  Libao is a cross-platform library that allows programs to output PCM audio
+  data to the native audio devices on a wide variety of platforms. It currently
+  supports OSS (Open Sound System), ESD (ESounD), ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound
+  Architecture), Sun audio system (used in Solaris, OpenBSD, and NetBSD), aRts
+  (Analog Realtime Synthesizer).
 
-  If you use Gaim 0.59.5 and Gaim segfaults as soon as it signs on, you do not
-  have a valid ~/.gtkrc file. This is fixed in debian's 0.59.5-2 package, and

-
-  If you are using a version newer than 0.59.6 and Gaim still crashes, please
-  let us know.
+  To compile Gaim with support for libao you need libao-devel and
+  audiofile-devel. To use libao you need libao and audiofile. If you do not

- 
-  With 0.60 and higher, try running gaim with GDK_USE_XFT=0 set. If this does
-  not fix the problem, please submit a bug report. If gaim is not crashing, but
-  is just sitting there not displaying anything, try turning off anything else
-  that might be using the sound device (ie xmms) and then starting gaim. If
-  this fixes the problem, it is a libao issue, not a gaim issue, and can be

+2.8  How do I make Gaim use ALSA or OSS for playing sounds? What does the
+     "Automatic" option do?
+
+  If you choose "Automatic", "ESD", or "Arts", Gaim uses libao to play sounds.
+  Choosing "ESD" or "Arts" forces libao to play sounds using that method, while
+  choosing "Automatic" lets it decide for itself.
 
-  If you use MSN, and have a version 0.64, downgrade to 0.63 or upgrade to

-2.11  Gaim CVS is buggy. Gaim <non-current version> is buggy.
- 
-  Yes, it is! CVS is often unsupported by Gaim, as are non-current versions.
-  This is because non-current versions have old bugs which may be fixed in the
-  current version, and CVS is frequently unusable because of the changes in the
-  code (and it has new bugs). If you are using either and have a problem,

-  for help in Gaim's IRC channel. If the bug does not exist in the current

+2.11  Why does Gaim use the same WM_CLASS for every window? It makes it
+      impossible to control window size and placement for the buddy list
+      separately from the conversations.
+
+  Both strings in the WM_CLASS property are supposed to be the same for all
+  windows in the same instance of an application. ICCCM states that one is
+  meant to be the same for all instances of the application, the other is meant
+  to be unique to that instance of the application. ICCCM also states "If a
+  client has multiple windows with identical WM_CLASS and WM_NAME properties,
+  then it should provide a WM_WINDOW_ROLE property."
+
+  Gtk+ sets these WM_CLASS values for us so that they are unique for Gaim
+  instances, and the documentation for the gtk_window_set_wmclass function says
+  explicitly not to use it for anything else. Before we released Gaim 0.60, we
+  replaced all calls to this function with calls to gtk_window_set_role(),
+  which sets the WM_WINDOW_ROLE hint instead. If your window manager is having
+  problems differentiating between Gaim windows, please ensure that your window

+  messenger client. Aside from the capabilities each protocol may support, the
+  Gaim developers have no intention to turn Gaim into a multi-feature Internet
+  client capable of doing everything under the sun. We also won't be helping to

-  In 0.59 and earlier you can use cp to copy your buddy list. It is stored in
-  the $HOME/.gaim directory. The file name is your screen name, in all capital
-  letters. Gaim 0.60 does not support exporting your buddy list.

+  and Jabber.
 
-3.8  Can Gaim import my buddy list?
- 
-  Unfortunately, no, you cannot import your buddy list with Gaim 0.60 and
-  later. However, as Gaim will read the server copy of the buddy list, this is
-  most likely not necessary unless you use a 3rd party client that is broken
-  (aka trillian).
+3.5  Can I import or export my buddy list?
 
-  With Gaim 0.59 and earlier, this depends on the format of the buddy list.
-  Gaim has mixed success importing Windows AIM buddy lists. If you want to try,
-  click File->Import. This is accessible after you sign on. If you want to
-  import an Licq (http://licq.org/) contact list, you can try using the
-  licq2gaim.pl perl script, which comes with the Gaim source code, but we do
-  not support this.
+  Sorry, no. Old versions of Gaim supported this, but new versions do not. All
+  the code for saving and loading buddy lists was rewritten, and support for
+  importing and exporting buddy lists was never re-added. However, with all
+  major protocols storing their buddy lists on the server, this feature is less

   "Expand". Then just drag other screen names to the same person below it. When
   you're done, click on the arrow to collapse them. When the contact is
   collapsed, Gaim will select a buddy to display based on the status of the
   buddies in the contact, and their order.
 
+3.8  How do I get the old logging back?
+
+  The old logging was removed because it was deficient in many ways. There is
+  no way in gaim itself to revert to the old logging, but the new logging is so
+  good you could implement something similar to the old logging as a plugin.
+
+3.9  How can I convert my old logs to the new format?
+
+  It's not possible to perfectly convert from the old format to the new format
+  because the old format is missing some information necessary to do that (eg.
+  which account the messages were sent from).
+
+  It shouldn't be too difficult to do a rough conversion using a small script,
+  or using the old_logger_* functions in gaim itself.
+
+  Peter Johnson has written a python script to do just this, it is available on
+  his website (at the bottom).
+
+3.10  Where has the system log gone?
+
+  The system log had to be removed when the new logging was implented. It will
+  make a return someday, just be patient. Or if you're brave there is a patch
+  in the patch tracker on sourceforge that re-implements system logging.

- 
+12.1  What is Zephyr?
+
+  Zephyr is an IM protocol developed at MIT for use with Project Athena. Its
+  features include Kerberos IV authentication, multi-level chats (aka
+  "subscriptions"). You're probably using this because your college/employer/
+  organization uses it as a local IM/chat system. If not, you probably don't
+  have a server to connect to.
+
+12.2  Other Zephyr clients (zwgc,owl,tzc) work, but gaim dies with "Couldn't
+      initialize zephyr".
+
+  Your site might require the use of Kerberos 4 for authentication, though few
+  (if any) prepackaged gaim binaries compile it with Kerberos support. The
+  solution is to compile gaim with the --with-krb4 flag to point to the
+  location of your Kerberos 4 devel files, usually one of /usr, /usr/local, or
+  /usr/athena , e.g. ./configure --with-krb4=/path/to/kerberosIV
+
+12.3  Gaim isn't working, but I never got any other zephyr client working on
+      this machine.
+
+  You need to have zhm (which comes with the standard zephyr distribution)
+  installed, and running, and pointed at your zephyr servers. e.g.
+
+  zhm z1.example.com z2.example.com z3.example.com
+
+  Alternately, there might be a firewall or a NAT between you and the zephyr
+  servers Zephyr doesn't work in an environment where incoming connections
+  cannot be made to arbitrary UDP ports.
