Integrating new version of libgaim?

[Ralf Schlatterbeck]

Hello Vadim, hello list,
We'd like to integrate a newer version of limgaim (for instant messaging
with most protocols except sip) into qutecom. The current version
shipped is so old that we think many bugs we're seeing stem from this
old version. Is there a technical reason for including this lib with
qutecom?

Our idea would be to use an external lib (not ship the library with
qutecom).

But my knowledge of the build-system is too small to make this change.
Can you point us in the direction where to look for necessary changes in
the build-system?

Related: Does libgaim compile under windows or is the reason to ship
libgaim with qutecom that there are changes to the original libs?
