Hi and Welcome !

Are you installing .deb package using dpkg -i command or apt-get throwing that error?
If your machine has internet access, you should try this

su
apt-get update
apt-get install amsn

You need to install tcl8.3, itcl3.1, itk3.1 . . . , maybe tclx8.3, tk8.3, iwidgets3.1 . . . from debian packages, they come in my Debian 4.0 r0 Etch CDs

check the dependances for aMSN,

Also, you can check ActiveTcl webpage for download and install a more recent version, mybe you'll need to create some softlinks

did you read the INSTALL file inside the tar.gz archive ???
maybe references to parameters as "./configure --with-tcl --with-tcl-libraries" or some like that


But, you can use Kopete (kde) or maybe GAIM / PIDGIN

also, you can have multiple logged accounts

it's only an advice

depends of you

See you
