Yes, I realize I've built gaim against gnutls where it used to be
mozilla in the past. But it stopped working for me using mozilla libs at
some point, and then I switched. Now the problem is there's no gnutls
available (except for me of course ;), so the options are:

1) I remove the gaim package from my pub/people dir, since I've given it
   to the fine Ximian people to do a better job than me.

2) I leave it and people have the chance to use it with a self compiled
   gnutls.

Opinions?
