The sourceforge page for this project says "GTKyahoo project was
closed down on February 27, 2003." http://gtkyahoo.sourceforge.net/ 
You may have a much easier time installing something that is being
currently maintained. I believe net-im/pidgin is quite popular and
is actively maintained. Pidgin is a messenger client, and it can
handle quite a few protocols, including yahoo.

Cheers, Tim.
