There is a tool called portaudit, which checks the ports against security vulnerabilities, and gaim 1.2.1 has some security issues, thus portaudit prevents You from installing it. Is your ports tree up-to-date? I don't think so. Gaim 1.2.1 is pretty old. Upgrade yout ports tree via cvsup and try again. If the new version has security issues, too, You could decide to configure portaudit to ignore this problem. Cheers, Gábor Kövesdán
