+Because of AOL,  Gaim had to switch name to Pidgin  in 2007, which has
+some effects on  the above discussion. As of Dolda  Connect 0.5, it is
+possible to  compile the plugin for  Pidgin as well as  for Gaim. Most
+things still  apply as they are, but  some care must be  taken. If you
+decide  to install  the plugin  in your  home directory,  the relevant
+directory is now called  $HOME/.purple/plugins.  Also, the name of the
+plugin is called libdolcon-purple.so, instead of libdolcon-gaim.so.
