Wow! Awsome!

First, thanks for this package.

I don't have a MAC, but one of my friend thested it, and it works, he 
was able to run Gajim on it with your package. The only thing he has to 
do was to install the hicolor icon theme. (some folder + one index.theme 
in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/
I think it should be installed by your package.

Except, once again a great thanks!
