-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2019-5f81926fc7 2019-12-08 01:16:01.293622 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : bitlbee Product : Fedora 31 Version : 3.6 Release : 1.fc31 URL : https://www.bitlbee.org/ Summary : IRC to other chat networks gateway Description : BitlBee is an IRC to other chat networks gateway. BitlBee can be used as an IRC server which forwards everything you say to people on other chat networks like XMPP/Jabber (including Google Talk and Hipchat) and Twitter microblogging network (and all other Twitter API compatible services like status.net). There are also plugins for facebook and steam, and even more protocols can be used via libpurple.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
BitlBee 3.6 =========== IRC/Core -------- * Add server-time IRCv3 capability * Add PROXY command for haproxy/stunnel * Large performance improvements for large contact lists * Many UX/documentation improvements * Added built-in crash handler that writes to `/var/lib/bitlbee/crash.log` * Try to join long spaceless lines in paste_buffer without a newline. The main use case for this is pasting long URLs and not breaking them * Fix status message being set to null accidentally * Fix handling utf8 nick renames when loading configs * Fix SSL's SNI with hostnames starting with a digit * Show correct nick when `rename -del` is used Twitter ------- * Disable the stream setting by default. Filter streams still work. * Update default character limit to 280 chars * Fix quote tweet url display. Jabber ------ * Try to join anyway after "Already present in chat" * Fix chat joins when ext_jid is provided for your own user. Seen with Biboumi (a gateway from XMPP to IRC) * Handle always_use_nicks more gracefully to reduce nick change noise OTR --- * Don't block attempts to connect/smp/smpq to "offline" users Removed dead protocols ---------------------- * msn: Use the skypeweb purple plugin instead. * skype (the dbus based thing): ditto. * yahoo: It's so dead even the replacement protocol died. * oscar: AIM is dead, for ICQ use the icyque purple plugin instead. For plugin devs --------------- * Add datadir to pkgconfig file and config.h * Add "bitlbee-set-account-password" purple signal (for hangouts) * Support libpurple 2.12.0's PURPLE_MESSAGE_REMOTE_SEND for groupchat self-messages (for slack) Packaging/distro specific stuff ------------------------------- * `bitlbee@.service` now sends stderr to syslog instead of the socket * debian: only enable `bitlbee.service`, not `bitlbee.socket` too * cygwin: portability fixes for plugins * Support OpenSSL 1.1 built without backwards compat -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog:
