Not completely the spells fault, the tarball for gaim-nightly hasn't
been updated since April 4th, but the version for the spell now reads
todays date. So the tarball is extracting to /usr/src/gaim-20030404 and
the spell is looking for /usr/src/gaim-20030407. I guess I could try
adding in some error checking to the spell, and say if the directory has
is named with a date older than the current date to print out a message
saying that the your version is up to date. Otherwise, it should
compile okay. As for gaim-e, that pulls from CVS. Does a summon -d
gaim-nightly say anything about the gaim-e.tar.bz2?

On another note, there is now a gaim-cvs spell, which would be less
likely to break because of these date issues than the nightly spell.
Both gaim-cvs and gaim-nightly are not dependent on gaim-e, and will
still cast okay w/o it, or even if gaim-e compilation fails.
