Since the ICQ protocol update on the 28th December 2018, licq can no longer log into the ICQ servers. This requires an updated ICQ protocol plugin!

I hope somebody is willing to fix this!

Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your report. I'm sorry to inform you that Licq development has stopped so this issue will most likely not be dealt with.

Hi,

I thought that'd be the case... Too bad, because it's still my preferred client.

It wouldn't have to be the original developers doing it either, I'd welcome an implementation of the new WIM protocol in licq, no matter where it comes from. ;)

I don't think I can do this by myself unfortunately... small fixes like the 16-character passwords, that was easy to do, but a whole protocol implementation... uh.

licq has not been able to connect to ICQ servers since 28th December 2018,
while upstream discontinued development in 2014 and has no plans to start
over.

Also, these packages have not been updated since 2007, so I doubt anyone
has used this in a long time.

…ocol on 2019-12-28.

So the licq packages can't do anything anymore.
