Package: xchat
Version: 2.8.8-1
In prefs / Chatting / Alerts:
- check "Alerts" / "Make a beep sound on" / "Private Message"
- add a nick in "Highlighted Messages" / "Nick names not to highlight"
now ask that nick to send you a private message.
xchat beeps. It should not.
In my case, I was annoyed by messages from "-bip" and "NickServ".
The attached patch fixes it (tested successfully in Ubuntu 10.10)
