Hello Toh,
Okay, I compiled the im locker licq (which the outland locker licq
calls, actually), about 1.5 years back, and libpspell doesn't seem to
exist on current versions of Linux Athena. I'll either recompile the
old licq version, or install a new version (if I can compile the gtk+
plugin against recent versions of licq). If you're interested in using
other ICQ programs, however you might want to try using gaim (gtk
based), centericq (curses based). To use your ICQ account with gaim,
you should configure an account using the "TOC" protocol, which is
also used by AIM. In general, you _should_ be able to use any program
which implements the "TOC" protocol for ICQ purposes, using your UIN
as your "username". Both of these programs are available in the im
locker.
