Call for testers: choqok

The current release of the choqok microblogging client that is in fedora
doesn't support oauth authentication which is going to become mandatory
for twitter access on monday.

I have prepared packages that update choqok to a svn snapshot but those
aren't very well tested at the moment. Before pushing these to
updates-testing I'd appreciate feedback on the new build.

If you're running kde-unstable then just update / yum install choqok and
you'll get choqok-0.9.85-0.1.1162196svn - which is the snapshot.

If you're not running kde-unstable then koji builds are available:

F14: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=189965
F13: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=189966
F12: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=189967

Using the above builds you'll also need to install the new dependencies
qoauth, qjson and webkitpart. Downloading the choqok and choqok-libs
rpms and then doing a "yum localinstall --nogpgcheck choqok*.rpm" is
proabably the easiest way to get this installed.

So if you're a choqok user please test this if possible - timely
feedback at least gives us a slight chance to have something in
updates-testing when twitter disables the old way of accessing it on
monday.
