also appears using gaim-2.0.0-0.17.beta4.fc6 However, sending/receiving messages
works, only the status is displayed wrong. Might be a change in Yahoo protocol
or what-the-hell.

Comment 3 Warren Togami 2006-11-15 16:16:49 UTC
*zoink*

(Upstream, any idea about this issue?)

Comment 4 Luke Schierer 2006-11-15 16:23:17 UTC
Tim was looking at supporting the msn<->yahoo integration, I think that caused this.

Comment 5 Warren Togami 2006-11-15 16:29:37 UTC
MSN<->Yahoo integration!?  Wow.


Comment 6 Stu Tomlinson 2006-11-15 16:40:39 UTC
Gaim beta4 tries to support a newer yahoo protocol, we believe this is the cause
of these problems. beta5 reverted to the older protocol version. This is the
patch if you want to backport it to beta4:

Comment 7 Warren Togami 2006-11-15 23:10:56 UTC
I added this patch to FC7.  I want to have more fixes before pushing this to FC6
updates.

Verified the bug has been fixed in gaim-2.0.0-0.28.beta5.el5 on
RHEL5-Client-20061226.nightly. The Buddy in one Yahoo account can be added to
another Yahoo account successfully. 

Resolve the bug now. Pls feel free to reopen this bug report if the solution
does not work for you.
