Upgrading your ClientIf you are upgrading your client from a previous version of Yahoo! Messenger, please remove the older version first before installing this version. In addition, due to changes in the base libraries, please rename the preferences file in the directory $HOME/.ymessenger from .ymessenger/preferences to .ymessenger/preferences.old. The new client will automatically configure your setup. You will not lose any offline or archived messages in this process. Other notesThis client uses an un-GNOMEified version of GtkHTML 0.8, which is under the LGPL. Download the source. Note: You can use the md5sum utility to verify the correctness of the downloaded file. The checksums are provided with each file. |
