The easiest way to get the Squawk is to install it from AUR (if you use Archlinux like distribution)
Here is the link for the AUR package
You can also install it from console if you use some AUR wrapper. Here what it's going to look like with pacaur
$ pacaur -S squawk
You can also clone the repo and build it from source
Squawk requires Qt with SSL enabled. It uses CMake as build system.
There are two ways to build, it depends whether you have qxmpp installed in your system
Here is what you do
$ git clone https://git.macaw.me/blue/squawk
$ cd squawk
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ cmake --build .
Here is what you do
$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://git.macaw.me/blue/squawk
$ cd squawk
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake .. -D SYSTEM_QXMPP=False
$ cmake --build .
Here is the list of keys you can pass to configuration phase of cmake ..
