It is important in package history because it represents the early terminal IRC client tradition from which several later Unix IRC clients took inspiration or code. ### Historique du projet The project site describes ircII as an IRC and ICB client for most Unix platforms, distributed in source form and maintained by a group that incorporates fixes and features. Its release news shows date-stamped source releases continuing through the 2000s and 2010s, including changes for SSL IRC servers, UTF-8 handling, lastlog behavior, macOS fixes, sanitizer-derived bug fixes, and generated HTML help. The package's long-lived source archive style is part of its identity: the project publishes tarballs and a daily expanded source tree rather than presenting a modern forge as the primary source-control interface. ### Historique d'adoption ircII appears in Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, MacPorts, Alpine, and other package indexes because it remains a compact terminal client for IRC users who prefer a classic Unix interface. IRC help material also documents ircII as a Unix-shell client and discusses EPIC and other clients in relation to ircII. ### Modes d'utilisation Users run `irc` or versioned helper binaries from a terminal to connect to IRC or ICB services. The Debian manpage describes it as a full-screen termcap interface that exposes normal IRC functions plus additional options, which matches its package-manager role as a lightweight console chat client. ### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent ircII is package-nerd material because it preserves an older Unix distribution model: source tarballs, termcap UI, generated help files, and small command-line companion programs. Its versioned executable names in package managers are a reminder that old IRC clients often need to coexist with scripts and user habits built over decades. ### Chronologie - 2006: Project news lists public releases in July 2006. - 2011: Project news lists the 20110228 and 20111115 releases. - 2014: Releases added HTTP proxy and SSL IRC server support, followed by resize and display fixes. - 2017: A release focused on UTF-8, log, lastlog, resize, and macOS fixes. - 2019: Releases added lastlog restore support and early HTML help conversion. - 2021: A release included memory leak, crash, and sanitizer-derived fixes. - 2024: The project published 20240111 and 20240918 source releases. - 2026: The project published the 20260115 source release. ### Related projects - ircII is historically adjacent to other Unix IRC clients such as EPIC, BitchX, ScrollZ, Irssi, and WeeChat, and to ICB clients through its combined IRC/ICB support. ### Sources - - - - - - ## Notes de sécurité broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Risque Geiger:** blue / moyen - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Détails de la base source - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** ircii - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Autres enregistrements de gestionnaires de paquets - Debian apt - ircii - 20240918-1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: ircii from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Internet Relay Chat client | http://www.eterna.com.au/ircii/ - Ubuntu apt - ircii - 20210328-2build3: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: ircii from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Internet Relay Chat client | http://www.eterna.com.au/ircii/ - apk - ircii - 20260115-r1: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: ircii from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Universal IRC for Unix systems | http://www.eterna23.net/ircii/ - apk - ircii-doc - 20260115-r1: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: ircii-doc from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Universal IRC for Unix systems (documentation) | http://www.eterna23.net/ircii/ - MacPorts - ircii: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: irc/ircii/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Liens liés - [Secret-risk packages](https://pkg.so/fr/secret-risk-packages/) - Has protected-tool coverage, approval-gate, or non-low Geiger security signals. - [Terminal utility packages](https://pkg.so/fr/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://pkg.so/fr/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [Web development packages](https://pkg.so/fr/web-dev-tools/) - Matched web development metadata. - [openssl@3](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/openssl-3/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [irssi](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/irssi/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: chat-client, cli, irc, networking, terminal. - [tiny](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/tiny/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: chat-client, cli, irc, networking, terminal. - [weechat](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/weechat/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, irc, networking, terminal. - [senpai](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/senpai/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, irc, networking, terminal. - [bitchx](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/bitchx/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, irc, networking, terminal. - [catgirl](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/catgirl/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, irc, networking, terminal. - [icbirc](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/icbirc/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, icb, irc, networking. - [telnet](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/telnet/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, networking, terminal. - [epic5](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/epic5/) - Local metadata places this package in an adjacent workflow.
