For me, gdk-pixbuf2 @2.36.10_1 and gdk-pixbuf2 @2.36.10_2 broke displaying images in Gajim, and updating the list of plugins got stuck. Keeping gdk-pixbuf2 @2.36.6_0 active worked until gdk-pixbuf2 @2.36.11 came out which didn'nt have issues either.

With macports, its as simple as that:

port install gajim

If you want to use OMEMO:

port install gajim py-axolotl py-pil py-qrcode

Then install the OMEMO Plugin from the Plugin Manager

For some reason, my locale settings screw up Gajim. Setting LANG to C works:

LANG=C gajim

(this way you change LANG only for Gajim and its descendants)
