 If you wish to use Mozilla NSS with Pidgin, you will need to compile from source using [http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/rpm-navigation.php?cat=%2FLibraries%2Fmozilla-nss/ these NSS packages] from the same site as the Pidgin RPMs.

-You will probably need to compile from source.  To do so, uninstall any previous versions of Pidgin using apt, synaptic, or similar.  Then install libgnutls10-dev via synaptic or `apt-get install libgnutls10-dev`.  Then run Pidgin's configure script with the `--enable-gnutls=yes` argument.
+=== Ubuntu Feisty (7.04) and Gusty (7.10) ===
+Uninstall any previous versions of Pidgin using apt, Synaptic, or similar.  Then install the `libnss3-dev` package with Synaptic or `apt-get install libnss3-dev`.  Now re-run `./configure`, `make`, `make install`.  Alternatively, use `apt-get build-dep gaim` (or `pidgin` on Gusty, although `gaim` will work) to get all of Pidgin's dependencies, then rebuild Pidgin.

 ./configure will print summary information at the end of its execution that tells you what SSL implementation will be used.  You will get one of these four lines:
 {{{
