No, I had not installed libgadu3. I wonder why it wasnt installed? I'd say this is a missing dependency bug, because gaim does look really odd in the account configuration dialogue if you have an "old" configured gadu account and no libgadu. And there is no apparent hint of any kind to the user that he needs to manually install extra libs to get the full functionality that is promised in the gaim package description.
