[gaim-migrate @ 16158] Add a "--with avahi" option to our RPM spec file. I think this should work, but I just got the following error and I want to go to sleep: /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.68399: line 39: syntax error: unexpected end of file error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.68399 (%install) RPM build errors: /home/mark/rpmbuild/SPECS/gaim.spec:194: Got a %else with no %if Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.68399 (%install) 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
	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 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 Toolkit cannot be located the SILC will not be compiled into the 
Gaim.
