#Linux Mint 18.2 how to install gajim .16.9 so you can use OMEMO encryption:

wget https://gajim.org/downloads/0.16/gajim-0.16.9.tar.gz
tar -zxvf gajim-0.16.9.tar.gz
cd gajim-0.16.9
./autogen.sh ;make;sudo make install

#Add the repository:
sh -c "echo deb ftp://ftp.gajim.org/debian unstable main > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gajim.list"
