Gaim and MSN with GnuTLS


I had MSN working before with Gaim, but recently I uninstalled Mozilla (cos I switched to Firefox). Reading the FAQ on the Gaim site, it said you could install GnuTLS and all it's dependancies to get SSL support needed for MSN. I did that and then reinstalled Gaim (with --enable-gnutls=yes when using configure), but it still says I need to install a supported SSL library. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks.

Try gaim -d to enable debug output, and see if anything suspicious is printed.
