Here are the details from the Slackware 10.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
Fri Aug 27 14:25:53 PDT 2004
patches/packages/gaim-0.82.1-i486-1.tgz: Upgraded to gaim-0.82.1 to fix a
 couple of bugs in the gaim-0.82 release. Also, gaim-encryption-2.29 did
 not work with gaim-0.82 (or 0.82.1), so that has been upgraded to
 gaim-encryption-2.30.
