  Also affects distribution Trisquel GNU/Linux 3.5 - http://trisquel.info/

  From bitlbee web page:
  
  "If you're getting the following error message while trying to use your
  MSN account:
  
  Error during Passport authentication: Could not parse Passport server
  response
  
  This is caused by BitlBee being a little bit too restrictive in the
  responses it gets from the authentication server. This bug is fixed in
  bzr and this code is live on im.bitlbee.org and testing.bitlbee.org. A
  fix will most likely come out as a version 1.2.7 very soon. "

  "BitlBee 1.2.7 was just released with the fix for the MSN Messenger
  login issues.
  
  It includes some other changes (mostly IM module fixes and a
  show_offline setting that lets you have your offline contacts in the
  control channel as well."
