Bitbee 1.0, Fedora Core 5 T1 Screenshot, Irssi for FC5T1, Other Changes
 |
Well, first off, I installed FC5T1 test under VMWare, and compiled the necessities. I managed to get Bitlbee 1.0 to compile under FC5, and built an RPM for it (also under FC4, Redhat 9, and RHEL4 as well). I wanted to test it, and ended up building an irssi RPM as well. The Bitlbee RPMs are located here. In the process of building, I took a screen shot and uploaded it to the screen gallery here. Also, I’ve been seriously hacking my httpd.conf file, and it has grown to around 1760 lines long. I’m redirecting a lot of old content, and I’ve migrated everything that used to be uberh4×0r to hudge, and a lot of cached links from the old server are now redirected properly on hudge. |
Bitlbee + Google Talk
I successfully connected to Google Talk with a patched version of Bitlbee 0.92 today. You can download my RPM (for Redhat 9) here:
Bitlbee 0.92 with Hanji Patches for Redhat 9.0
Hanji created some cool patches for Bitlbee that add AIM typing notification, HTML Escape, /notice Autoreply, and working AIM info commands to 0.92. I applied his all patch, and re-packaged my Bitlbee 0.92 Redhat 9 RPM with the patches included. You can download it here: http://involution.com/rpms/bitlbee-0.92-hoyhoy1-all-hanji-patches.i386.rpm
Thanks Wilmer
Involution.com has had some connectivity problems since moving onto the new server. I’ve never been able to quite figure out what they were though. Fortunately, Wilmer van der Gaast managed to help me solve them. He had a machine that could faithfully reproduce the timeout error. So, I tweaked some firewall settings, and we managed to work around the issue. Thanks again Wilmer.
Bitlbee on Fedora Core 2
I added an article about installing bitlbee on Fedora Core 2.
Bitlbee 0.90
YAAAAAAAAAAAY! Bitlbee 0.90. Here’s my Redhat 9.0 RPM:
Bitlbee Intelligent Command Completion for Irssi
I didn’t really know I needed this, but t1iming managed to come up with it anyway. It’s an irssi plug-in that allows intelligent command completion whilst using irssi. You can download it here:
Bitlbee 0.84
I managed to put the Bitlbee 0.84 in my RPM archive on uberh4×0r last night. You can enjoy the 1337ness of using AIM, Y!, ICQ, MSN, and Jabber all from the comfort of your favorite irc client (e.g. irssi) by installing this simple rpm:
