[gaim-migrate @ 16349] Three changes: 1. When you try to sign on with an oscar screen name that is not valid ("123abc" for example), the PRPL will set gc->wants_to_die to TRUE so that the account will not be auto-reconnected. 2. When we get an AIM userinfo packet about someone in our buddy list, if the person has some kind of screen name formatting set ("Mark Doliner" instead of "markdoliner") then we set the buddies server_nick to that formatted name. 3. Add a "Get AIM Info" to the context menu for ICQ buddies who are in the buddy list of an ICQ user. 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
	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.
