Owner: Dariusz Dwornikowski <dariusz.dwornikowski@cs.put.poznan.pl>
* Package name : profanity
Version : 0.4.0
Upstream Author : James Booth <boothj5web@gmail.com>

* License : GPL-3
Programming Lang: C
Description : a console based XMPP client
Profanity is a console based XMPP client written in C using ncurses and
libstrophe, inspired by Irssi. It supports:
* XMPP chat services, including GoogleTalk and Facebook,
* command driven interface,
* customizable functionality and user interface,
* Off the Record message encryption,
* chat room support,
* roster management,
* flexible resource and priority settings,
* desktop notifications,
* unicode support,
* integrated DuckDuckGo search,
* sending tiny URLs,
* plugin written in C, Python, Ruby and Lua.
Since I did not get a response from XMPP packaging team, I will strat packaging
it by myself with a possibility to move to XMPP team when they respond.
Profanity depends on a great XMPP library libstrophe, which is not in Debian
yet. I am currently working on providing a high quality package (ITP 511341),
for that reason I am working with upstream to adjust the source for Debian.
