Today I upgraded the local BitlBee server on Klaki.net. I use it to connect to Jabber, MSN and various other chat networks from my IRC client (irssi).

BitlBee rocks. :-)

I upgraded to BitlBee 0.92 with the recent Google-Talk patch and Andy's MSN enhancements. I had to clean up Andy's patch a bit to get it to compile on RedHat 7.3, but I don't think I broke anything. ;-)

As a result, I can see everyone's cute little MSN pictures and have a picture of my own. As far as I'm concerned, all that's really missing from BitlBee now is support for file transfers...

I made an RPM package for RedHat 7.3. You can download it or the source RPM from here. Enjoy!
