libfolks 0.4.2 — Why, because I rap about reality?!
========================================================================
Libfolks pulls together contacts from any number of accounts supported
by the libfolks backends. This release includes a Telepathy backend
complete enough to power Empathy and a key file backend to allow contact
linking. We would like to include additional backends (especially
evolution-data-server), so let us know if we can help!

The 0.4.x series is API and ABI stable and corresponds to the Gnome 3.0
release. New feature development (and potentially API and ABI breaks)
will continue in the 0.5.x series. Only critical bug fixes will be
back-ported to 0.4.x.

For more information, see the Folks wiki page:

What's new?
===========

Bugs fixed:
* Bug 645430 — folks-inspect: Use LinkedHashSet to
  access im-addresses
* Bug 645411 — folks-import segfaults on startup
* Crasher when removing Personas 

Dependencies
============
libfolks and depend upon core GNOME libraries (GLib, GIO, etc.), as well
as the recent releases of Vala and gobject-introspection.

The Telepathy backend also requires a recent release of telepathy-glib,
built to include its Vala bindings.
