How does it fail?

You need to setup your account before it will do anything (which for me with MSN is my hotmail account & password, etc.).

If this is not the problem, try starting it from the command line & post the output.

Gaim is actually in the feed so you don't need to follow those instructions other than the end of step 6 if needs be (importing accounts), just install it from the feed and all the deps will be handled automatically.
