Since 0.4.10.4 had a bunch of annoying bugs, 0.4.10.5 is released quickly.
It fixes all those bugs announced shortly after 0.4.10.4's release, plus a
few more, including segfaults and problems downloading the server side
contact list. No new features have been added, but the Italian and the
Portuguese have been updated. 0.4.10.4 has been removed from micq.org.

Remember that versions prior to 0.4.10.4 are supectible to a remote DoS
attack; packets, where a variable amount of TLVs are expected in, that
contain enough TLVs to cause the TLV table to be expanded, can cause mICQ to
crash (namely, if the expanded table ends up on another memory location).
Nothing serious, but a security problem nevertheless.

The following is unfortunately still true:
> Kudos are in order for Mandrake and the PLD Linux Distribution as
> they're the only Linux distributions with recent mICQ packages on
> rpmfind.net that get the copyright of mICQ right. Guess why mICQ
> now displays it pretty prominently. Red Hat and ASPLinux still
> consider mICQ to be freely available or BSD licence. Those
> distributions also might consider shipping the translated man pages
> of mICQ... No Kudos go to the Debian project who still ships a
> version of mICQ with a seriously annoying yet trivially to fix bug
> and a copyright notice disclaiming my part of the authorship of
> mICQ. Shame on you!

=2Edeb users, remember that

deb http://www.micq.org/deb/ stable main
deb http://www.micq.org/deb/ unstable main

in your /etc/apt/sources.list will make things easier for you.

> Cygwin users, simply point your Cygwin setup.exe to
> http://www.micq.org/cygwin/
> as a "download site", and mICQ should pop up in your package list.

=2E.. as soon as I have a Cygwin binary *g*

Anyway, here are the checksums:
