RE: sock5 proxy support for irssi

Hi, 

After debug into tsocks.c, I found that close() would be invoked before _init(). Which caused error.

So I removed FC10 own irssi package, downloaded latest irssi from project website. Compiled and installed it. Amazing, it worked. Which means FC10 irssi hasn't been compiled properly. It's better to compile irssi on own PC to get stable version.

Now I could connect to external irc server via tsocks. Great!

Thanks for your guys' support.

Hao

I've downloaded tsocks 1.8, compiled on FC10 successfully, "make install" then.

When I ran "tsocks irssi", error message:
=> "libtsocks: Unresolved symbol: close"

It seems that symbol "close" couldn't be found. I tried another Fc10 machine, the same problem. That's strange.
