I just upgraded gaim and when I try to connect to MSN, I get the following message: toto has been deconnected. SSL support is needed for MSN. Please install a supported SSL library. See http://gaim.sourceforge.net/faq-ssl.php for more information. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch gaim. 2.

Next morning ... after firing up the computer, gaim is again working without problems. I guess it was probably a library conflict problem. Weird.
Note that MSN was also down the other day. That might have played a factor in things.
Makes 2 days that I get the same error message, and the MSN network looks fine: http://support.msn.com/networkstatusresults.aspx?ProductNum=100&ProductLocId=458

Yes that is a problem with gnutls, for some reason it needs to be built twice and then deps need to be rebuilt.
