Psi is my favourite Instant Messeger client. It is a Jabber-only client. I got involved in the Community back in May 2003. Ever since Psi has evolved into a robust and feature-wise Jabber client.

My activity as a Member of the Psi Community (username: IceRAM):

ArchLinux Packages

qca-1.0-1.pkg.tar.gz 0.03 MB - QCA
qca-tls-1.0-1.pkg.tar.gz 0.02 MB - QCA-TLS
psi-0.9.3-2.pkg.tar.gz 2.1 MB - Psi
  (rebuilt on June 13th, 2005 because of Qt upgrade)

Install notes

  • Install the packages in the above order, because of dependencies
  • QCA-TLS is needed for Psi’s SSL support

Further notes

  • The sources of the packages can be found here.
  • Installing/Upgrading should be done by “pacman -A {filename}”/”pacman -U {filename}” (you can use the full URL instead of {filename} - pacman will download the packages for you).
  • QCA will become a kdelibs dependency in the future and therefore it needs to be separate.
  • There are other QCA plugins besides TLS, such as QCA-SASL (pkg) but no program seems to require it right now. The package is provided for consistency in the same directory.
  • The above packages (Psi, QCA & QCA Plugins) are also available also through the ArchLinux Repositories (not exactly these PKGBUILDs I think).

Windows Packages

psi-0.9.3-win-setup.exe 2.53 MB  
psi-0.9.3-win-setup-i18n.exe 2.82 MB - includes language packs

Notes

  • The Windows Packages should also be available on the Psi Downloads Page by now.
  • The installer sources can be found in the Psi CVS

This page has the following sub pages.
