This is the alternative more complex method. You can just use the Gaim
from my URL if you don't need antialiased fonts. Note that I fully
support James' backports and use them myself on many machines, but I use
them to get GNOME 2.2 in its entirety. If you just want a newer Gaim,
it's overkill to backport Gtk 2.2 and fontconfig etc etc.
