Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

From upstream changelog :

 - Support for Gadu-Gadu 11 protocol.

 - Enable server certificate verification.

 - Allow using custom TCP/TLS connection functions.

 - Allow specifying server by name, not just IP.

 - Small bugfixes reported by Pidgin project based on Coverity audit.
