fedora
Calendar Grey April 11, 2006
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The patch addresses an issue in gaim that caused it to crash while blocking contacts on MSN, improving overall reliability and performance.
This update fixes Bug #185222 where gaim would crash when you use the buddy blocking feature with the MSN protocol

Summary

Gaim allows you to talk to anyone using a variety of messaging

protocols, including AIM (Oscar and TOC), ICQ, IRC, Yahoo!,

MSN Messenger, Jabber, Gadu-Gadu, Napster, and Zephyr. These

protocols are implemented using a modular, easy to use design.

To use a protocol, just add an account using the account editor.

Gaim supports many common features of other clients, as well as many

unique features, such as perl scripting and C plugins.

Gaim is NOT affiliated with or endorsed by America Online, Inc.,

Microsoft Corporation, or Yahoo! Inc. or other messaging service

providers.

This update fixes Bug #185222 where gaim would crash when

you use the buddy blocking feature with the MSN protocol.

It also contains a minor logging fix.
