bitlbee

An IRC to other chat networks gateway (default version)

This program can be used as an IRC server which forwards everything you say to people on other chat networks: Jabber (which includes Google Talk and Facebook Chat), ICQ, AIM, MSN, Yahoo! and Twitter/Identica/Status.net.

bitlbee-libpurple

An IRC to other chat networks gateway (using libpurple)

This program can be used as an IRC server which forwards everything you say to people on other chat networks: Jabber (which includes Google Talk and Facebook Chat), ICQ, AIM, MSN, Yahoo! and Twitter/Identica/Status.net. This package contains a version of BitlBee that uses the libpurple instant messaging library instead of built-in code, which adds support for more IM protocols (all protocols supported by Pidgin/Finch) and features (like file transfers), at the price of being less lightweight. If you don't need the extra features, it's better to use the built-in code.
