For now, I'm still patching Gaim and making a private deb at my
repository[1], but since Gaim's about to split libs and UI, I'm already
looking into another packaging scheme.
Gaim-encryption, since 2.06 doesn't need the patching anymore and it's
only a matter of time before it doesn't need the whole source tree, when
that happens I'll repackage it, or, if you're really interested, you
could do it too!
Just remember to talk to Robert McQueen <robot101@debian.org> for
guidelines you should follow when packaging Gaim plugins, once that
becomes possible.
