IRC to other Chat Networks Gateway

Edit Package bitlbee
http://www.bitlbee.org/

We are both console lovers. But it is annoying to have a few tty's open with
chat things in them. IRC, ICQ, MSN, Jabber... For X there is Gaim, which
supports many chatprotocols. Why wasn't there such a thing for the console?

The idea to port Gaim was easily thought of, of course. But we liked our IRC
clients. And we used it the most, so we used it best. Importing it into the
IRC client was a nice idea. But what if someone liked a different client. Then
(s)he had to duplicate our work.

That's a shame, we thought. Doing work twice is pointless. So when Wilmer got
the ingenious thought in his mind while farming, to create an IRC to other
chatnetworks gateway, we were both so excited, that we started working on it
almost immediately. And the result is BitlBee.

This package comes with support for MSN, Jabber, Oscar and Yahoo, as well as
enabled flood protection.

- Version update to 3.5.1:
  * purple: 
     Fix crash on file transfer requests from unknown contacts. 
     This was the result of an incomplete fix in the previous 
     release and may result in remote DoS. Read the full security 
     advisory at: https://bugs.bitlbee.org/ticket/1282
  * After some investigation we decided to reclassify a crash fix 
     from the previous release as a security issue. Read the full security 
     advisory at: https://bugs.bitlbee.org/ticket/1281
  * Included help.txt in the release tarball, which was missing in 
     the previous release and resulted in adding python as a build 
     dependency. The release tarball of 3.5.1 does not require python.
