[slackware-security]  gaim (SSA:2005-162-01)

New gaim packages are available for Slackware 9.0, 9.1, 10.0, 10.1,
and -current to fix some minor security issues.  Sites that use GAIM
should upgrade to the new version.

Here are the details from the Slackware 10.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/gaim-1.3.1-i486-1.tgz:  Upgraded to gaim-1.3.1 and
  gaim-encryption-2.38.  This fixes a couple of remote crash bugs, so
  users of the MSN and Yahoo! chat protocols should upgrade to gaim-1.3.1.
  (* Security fix *)
