    Use the gaim provided packages : http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=235
    +NOTE: If you're using a Mozilla builds from here :
    + http://people.ecsc.co.uk/~matt/downloads/rpms/mozilla/1.4/RPMS/
    +Then you WILL need to add /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4 to /etc/ld.so.conf & run ldconfig as
    +root. Replace 1.4 with whichever version you have installed.
    Red Hat Linux (7.3)
    ===================
    -Thanks to lesshaste on #gaim for this:
    -1. Install gtk2 from http://kde-redhat.sf.net/ (using apt-get is easiest)
    -2. Make sure you have mozilla-nss, mozilla-nss-devel, mozilla-nspr and
    - mozilla-nspr-devel installed
    -3. Compile from source - ./configure should be enough to find everything gaim
    - needs
    +There's a 3rd party RPM (built from the same .spec file as the ones on sf.net)
    +for Red Hat Linux 7.3 here : http://www.uidzero.co.uk/rpms/rh73/
    +
    +Just compile from source (straight ./configure will work if you have all the
    +required dependencies and their associated -devel packages installed), Red Hat
    +Linux 7.3 does actually have all the necessary stuff.
    +
    +If you want spell checking to work, install gtkspell & gtkspell-devel from
    +http://dag.wieers.com/apt/redhat/7.3/en/i386/RPMS.dag/
    +and compile from source (just installing this and using the RPM above will NOT
    +enable spellchecking)

    +Non-root
    +========
    +
    +(note: this is quite untested, feedback welcome)
    +
    +If you don't have root access on the system you're trying to install gaim
    +on, you need to configure gaim to install under your home directory.
    +
    +eg:
    +./configure --prefix=/home/username
    +
    +If there are additional dependancies required that are not installed on
    +the system, you'll need to install those in a similar manner and pass the
    +correct locations to gaim's ./configure.
    +
    +eg:
    +./configure --prefix=/home/username \
    + --with-nss-includes=/home/username/usr/include/mozilla-1.4/nss \
    + --with-nspr-includes=/home/username/usr/include/mozilla-1.4/nspr \
    + --with-nss-libs=/home/username/usr/lib/mozilla-1.4 \
    + --with-nspr-libs=/home/username/usr/lib/mozilla-1.4
