Comment (by charge):

 Hey!
 Here is difference for file libpurple/protocols/jabber/iq.c which allows
 report fake software version.

 Name is taken from file ~/.purple/<nick>_<domain>.name
 Version is taken from file ~/.purple/<nick>_<domain>.version

 Affected binary file: libjabber.so.0.0.0
 (/usr/lib/purple-2/libjabber.so.0.0.0).

 I understand that it is ugly, but it can be useful for people not to spend
 time to write same thing.

 Please, smb convert this to plugin or preference!
