That doesn't mean, however, that you are running the unstable
distribution.
If you really wanted to know, show the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list
If your main repository contains either 'testing' or 'sarge' you'll be
pulling 0.64 from it.
I did an apt-get dist-upgrade -t testing like the third day I had my box 
up. tty1-6 says that I'm running testing/unstable
I had to add another source to my sources.list (which I'll provide if 
anyone wants) so my problem is solved now.
I know Robert McQueen (gaim's maintainer, last time I checked) runs his
own repository on people.d.o with his latest packages, so I figure
that's where you obtained it from.
Nope.

I also encountered the problem that was the original point of this 
thread, GAIM dieing when you send a msg via MSN or Yahoo, but it has 
only happened once so I dunno.
I use neither of those services/modules, but you might want to
investigate some more. Gaim's not perfect, but it has never crashed for
me.
Well, now it crashes (repeatedly) when I try to enable "check spelling 
while typing".  Granted I've also installed every available ispell 
module. ;)
The problem with it crashing when trying to msg an MSN user was a one 
time phenomenon.
Up until now I've never had problems with GAIM, either.
