NAME

6       telepathy-gabble - Telepathy connection manager for XMPP (Jabber)
7

SYNOPSIS

9       /usr/libexec/telepathy-gabble
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Gabble  implements the Telepathy D-Bus specification for XMPP (Jabber),
13       allowing Telepathy clients like empathy(1) to connect to XMPP accounts,
14       including Google Talk.
15
16       It is a D-Bus service which runs on the session bus, and should usually
17       be started automatically by D-Bus activation. However, it might be use‐
18       ful to start it manually for debugging.
19

OPTIONS

21       There are no command-line options.
22

ENVIRONMENT

24       GABBLE_LOGFILE=filename
25              If  set,  debug  output will go to the given file rather than to
26              stderr.  If + is prepended to the  filename  (e.g.   GABBLE_LOG‐
27              FILE=+gabble.log),  debug  output  will be appended to the file;
28              otherwise, any existing file will be replaced.
29
30       GABBLE_DEBUG=type
31              May be set to "all" for full debug output,  or  various  undocu‐
32              mented  options  (which  may  change from release to release) to
33              filter the output.
34
35       WOCKY_DEBUG=type
36              May be set to "all" for full debug output from  the  Wocky  XMPP
37              library  used  by Gabble, or various undocumented options (which
38              may change from release to release) to filter  the  output.  For
39              general Gabble debugging, "net" is recommended.
40
41       GABBLE_PERSIST=1
42              If  set  (to  any  value),  Gabble  will  continue running until
43              killed, rather than timing out if it has no open connections for
44              a few seconds.
45
46       GABBLE_PLUGIN_DIR=directory
47              If  set,  and  Gabble  was compiled with plugin support, plugins
48              will be loaded from  directory  rather  than  from  the  default
49              directory.
