Sometime Today, CS cobbled together some glyphs to say:
libyahoo2 already does all of this, so it's not the answer. Perhaps you need to analyse your network traffic using a packet analyser like ethereal or something and then come up with an idea of what the difference is.
Trillian guys still take it forward, right ? AFAIK despite attempts from Y! to trump non-official clients someone does post a workaround. I don't know if its indeed to libyahoo.
trillian doesn't use libyahoo2. Note the 2 at the end. libyahoo2 is different from libyahoo. libyahoo stopped working in March 2001.
There's a whole load of functionality in mainline Y! thats not there in libyahoo. These days I even find it difficult to add new users under gaim. I have to do it in windows so it shows on serverlist. Then
gaim doesn't use libyahoo2.
pip back to linux. Bad but have no time to look into the problem. I think libyahoo is falling back wrt official client.
But you haven't use libyahoo2.
