libfolks 0.2.0 — I am the antidote
==================================
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!
libfolks is not yet API or ABI stable, so please proceed with caution.
For more information, see the Folks wiki page:
http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/wiki/Folks
What's new?
===========
* Build fixes for GIR 1.2 and Vala 0.10, meaning we now depend on
gobject-introspection 0.9.6, Vala 0.10.0 and telepathy-glib 0.11.16
(Travis Reitter)
* Various linking fixes (Brian Pepple, Philip Withnall)
* Normalize IM addresses written to the writeable backend (Philip
Withnall)
* Allow building the folks-import tool to be disabled (Philip Withnall)
Dependencies
============
libfolks and depend upon core GNOME libraries (GLib, GIO, etc.), as well
as the latest release of Vala and gobject-introspection.
The Telepathy backend also requires a recent release of
telepathy-glib, built to include its Vala bindings.
