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
