To install aMsn 0.97 follow these few steps:

1.Open a terminal (Alt+Ctrl+t) and type (Press Enter after each line):
sudo kwrite /etc/apt/sources.list

2.Add this line to sources.list:
deb http://updates.xepc.org/ p701 main

3.Save sources.list and exit kWrite.

4.Pin XEPCc in preferences
sudo kwrite /etc/apt/preferences

then copy and paste this to your preferences list

Package: *
Pin: origin updates.xepc.org
Pin-Priority: 935

5.Staying in terminal type:
sudo apt-get update

if at this stage you get a message similar to

W: GPG error: http://updates.xepc.org p701 Release: The following sign couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 3 BEBOD etc

this is just a missing certificate, it's a warning not an error, if you really want to add the key see this info in the wiki adding public keys

6.Staying in terminal type:
sudo apt-get install amsn

7. When the installation completes, to check whether aMsn has been properly installed and runs, type in terminal:
amsn
