i recently downloaded the gaim-2.0.0beta5. i uncompressed the file and put it on my desktop. i did a ./configure and it goes fine. there is a message that says there are no ssl libraries gaim will be working with. i have gnutls and i have the mozilla nss/nspr programs installed. when i looked into it i tried

./configure --with-gnutls-includes=/usr/local/include/gnutls \
--with-gnutls-libs=/usr/local/lib

and it still didnt configure it for ssl.

so i tried with nss and nspr this time

./configure --with-nss-includes=/usr/local/include/nss \
--with-nss-libs=/usr/local/lib \
--with-nspr-includes=/usr/local/include/nspr \
--with-nss-libs=/usr/local/lib

and when i read the output the only thing that registered that it was working was the nspr includes. all the others detected "no".

i then realized the nss includes were in /usr/local/include/nss/nss so i redid the above with the new nss location and it still is saying that only the nspr is there. im looking at the library files and the include files for both gnutls and nss/nspr.

any idea how to get this configured?

http://gaim.sourceforge.net/faq-ssl.php

Gaim's site, under FAQ, has quite some information about dealing with SSL problems.

I tried the following line

gmake WITHOUT_GNUTLS=t WITH_NSS=t WITHOUT_AUDIO=t

the problem im having is that im using the beta5 so i have to compile from source and the --with-xxxx-xxxx=PREFIX comands arent locating the right objects. any thoughts.
