Getting GAIM to work properly (?) with Hebrew

Apparently the GAIM 1.3.0 installer contains a really odd, bizarre or whatnot GTK+ runtime. Anyways I've installed the Glade 2.6.7 RC-1 GTK+ runtime (download) and it works like a charm.

BTW, I've encountered the wierdest problem with gaim on my laptop - running it is a NOP. Simply said, it doesn't do anything when run. A quick Google didn't help.

Did anybody experience a similar phenomenon?

Can't say I did - runs fine on mine. Which version did you try? There is probably a debug log or something you can have a look at.

I tried with 1.2.0 at the time, now did 1.3.0. Same problem, no error log.

Doesn't REALLY bother me, as I'm using Trillian and it suffices. One of the universes unsolved mysteries for now, I guess.

Did you file a bug report, or try in one of their support forums?
