Greetings Programs!

As of 2022-06-16 Google is shutting down third party client access to 
Google Talk [1]. This has been in the works for a long time and is 
expected. Unfortunately they didn't provide a time nor a time zone, so 
who knows exactly when it's going to be shut down...

If you would like to continue talking to your Google Contacts you'll 
need to migrate to purple-googlechat[2] from Eion Robb.

[1] https://support.google.com/talk
[2] https://github.com/EionRobb/purple-googlechat#readme

Thanks,
