The default settings for licq rely on some wave files in /usr/share/licq/sounds/, however the licq package in the beta does not provide these files. This causes an error every time you get a message, unless you turn of the 'OnEvent' option.
The sounds are in the licq-data package in Powertools - we decided not to clutter the distribution with them because they aren't needed (it's a warning, not an error).
I just checked, the licq-data package does not exist on disk1, disk2, or powertools.
It appears that the sounds are in fact included, the problem is that they are located in /usr/lib/licq/sounds. This is also an issue for the translations, and the utilities dirs whcih should be in /usr/share/licq. It was a tyop in the spec file, fixed in licq-0.85-2. Tim
