4== How to set it up
5
6- You need the BitlBee bzr branch:
7
8----
9bzr branch http://code.bitlbee.org/bitlbee/
10----
11
12- You need to enable plugin support:
13
14----
15http://frugalware.org/~vmiklos/patches/bitlbee-configure-plugins.patch
16----
17
18- To be able to do an install-dev:
19
20----
21http://frugalware.org/~vmiklos/patches/bitlbee-makefile-headers.patch
22----
23
24- Now compile and install it:
25
26----
27./configure --prefix=/usr
28make
29make install install-dev
30----
31
32- Get the plugin code:
33
34----
35git clone http://ftp.frugalware.org/pub/other/people/vmiklos/bitlbee-skype
36----
37
38- Compile and install it:
39
40----
41make
42cp skype.so /usr/lib/bitlbee
43----
44
45- Start skyped (the tcp server):
46
47----
48python skyped.py
49----
50
51NOTE: It's important to start skyped on the same machine and using the same
52user as you run Skype as it uses the session DBus for communication!
53
54== What works
55
56- Download nicks and away statuses from Skype
57
58- Sending messages
59
60- Receiving messages
61
62- skyped (the tcp daemon that is a gateway between Skype and tcp)
63
64- Error handling when skyped is not running and when it exists
65
66== What needs to be done (aka. TODO)
67
68- we can't ourselves join to &bitlbee (ignore such a message from skype)
69
70- mark received messages as read so that skype won't say there are unread messages
71
72- Away status changes (send / receive)
73
74- join / parts
75
76- add/remove users, detect when somebody wants to add us (maybe detect when we're removed?)
77
78- maybe on account on/off, change our state from/to offline? so that we won't miss any message
79
80== I would like to have support for ...
81
82If something does not work and it's not in the TODO section, then please contact me!
