I have heard rumours [gasp] that MSN and Yahoo are on a crusade to block third party clients using their transport. i don't know the weight of this in truth, but i must say that everyone i know who uses IM uses a third party client primarily to avoid Ads and such. I use gaim myself. perhaps its the company i keep. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Michael Sharp Sent: Thursday, 25 September 2003 2:53 PM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Cc: sethk@meowfishies.com; obrien@NUXI.com Subject: yahoo messenger Yahoo has officially updated messenger such that you can no longer connect using the current freebsd yahoo port version ( 0.99.19.1 ). I just tried to install their NEW package.. makayla# pkg_add fbsd4.ymessenger.tgz pkg_add: could not find package gtk-1.2.3 ! pkg_add: could not find package glib-1.2.3 ! pkg_add: could not find package XFree86-3.3.6 ! pkg_add: could not find package gdk-pixbuf-0.8.0 ! pkg_add: could not find package gettext-0.11.1_1 ! I have the following installed.. which worked fine with version 0.99.19.1.. gtk-1.2.10_10 gtk-2.2.4 glib-1.2.10_10 glib-2.2.3 XFree86-4.3.0,1 gdk-pixbuf-0.22.0 gettext-0.12.1 While I know the maintainer of the messenger port will have dealt with this issue before he commits the update, but why would Yahoo have released a new version today against depandants that are almost 6 months old?
