Hey Adam,
I fought with this for about three hours the other night. Go to Gaim's
faq-ssl:
http://gaim.sourceforge.net/faq-ssl.php
I used the GnuTLS tools.
libgpg-error (needed by libgcrypt):
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/libgpg-error/libgpg-error-0.5.tar.gz
libgcrypt (needed by GnuTLS):
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alpha/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.1.43.tar.gz
libtasn1 (needed by GnuTLS):
ftp://ftp.gnutls.org/pub/gnutls/libtasn1/libtasn1-0.2.6.tar.gz
GnuTLS (needed by gaim):
ftp://ftp.gnutls.org/pub/gnutls/attic/gnutls-0.9.91.tar.gz
As the page says, instal them in that order. After doing so, download
the latest source for Gaim .075. Unpack it and then do a "./configure
--with-gnutls-includes=PREFIX (Location of GNUTLS includes.)
--with-gnutls-libs=PREFIX (Location of GNUTLS libraries.)"
eg.. Mine looked like this:
"./configure --disable-nls --disable-perl
--with-gnutls-includes=/usr/local/lib/ --with-gnutls-libs=/usr/local/lib/"
I only know English so, --disable-nls and for some reason I can't get
perl to compile with it so, --disable-perl.
Everything worked fine after that. Hope this helps you.
Michael
