external-notifiers/ vs. debian/

Hi,

I've been trying to install the Debian package that you get
by running the following commands:

   $ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc
   $ sudo dpkg -i ../emacs-jabber_0.6.1_all.deb

Unfortunately, the install fails with this error message:

   emacs-package-install: /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages\
     /install/emacs-jabber emacs-snapshot emacs-snapshot \
     failed at /usr/lib/emacsen-common/emacs-package-install \
     line 30, <TSORT> line 4.
   dpkg: error processing emacs-jabber (--install):
    subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
   Errors were encountered while processing:
    emacs-jabber

So I tried to compile the files manually,

   $ cd /usr/share/emacs-snapshot/site-lisp/emacs-jabber/
   $ sudo emacs-snapshot -q -no-site-file --no-site-file -batch \
       -l path.el -f batch-byte-compile jabber-activity.el \
       jabber-ahc.el jabber-ahc-presence.el jabber-alert.el \
       jabber-browse.el jabber-chatbuffer.el jabber-chat.el \
       jabber-conn.el jabber-core.el jabber-disco.el jabber.el \
       jabber-events.el jabber-export.el jabber-feature-neg.el \
       jabber-ft-client.el jabber-ft-server.el jabber-history.el \
       jabber-iq.el jabber-keepalive.el jabber-keymap.el \

add default key binding in roster buffer

Hello, 

For improve usability I'm suggest to add binding for key 'g' to function
`jabber-display-roster'. For now I get message 'buffer is read only'
in minibuffer.

Yes, the XML standard forbids all control characters except tab,
linefeed and carriage return.

I just committed the following patch, which should hopefully take care
of all such cases without breaking anything.

Good idea.  Applied.

Thanks for testing this!  I don't have reason to do it very often, as
you might have noticed. ;-)

The reason for having it is to avoid cluttering the main source
directory more than necessarily - the external notifiers are tiny
modules that nothing depends on, and that are in most cases
irrelevant.  Then again, it seems to cause more trouble than it's
worth, so I just moved the files and removed external-notifiers.  I
think I've changed all references...

Applied.  Thanks!
