Why did I build a new xchat package for backtrack 5?  Because there is a bug in the one that is included.  The bug causes favorites to not be saved on exit.  I don’t know if it affects everybody but I found a bug on the xchat website that is over a year old regarding it.  So, if ubuntu or backtrack maintainers won’t fix it…..I will.

You can get the source and deb packages here:

The requires libperl-dev which apparently doesn’t exist in the repos too….so its here:
