Hi,
I mentioned this a while back in another thread. Now it is even worse.
When I tell Kopete to make me "online" with Yahoo, I get a pop-up that
says I am using a old version of Yahoo messenger. If I close the
message box, it throws me offline. Basically, I can't stay online with
Kopete and Yahoo anymore.
Info for kopete:
> root@smoker / # emerge -pv kopete:3.5

> Calculating dependencies ... done!
> [ebuild R ] kde-base/kopete-3.5.10-r4 USE="crypt groupwise

> -sms -translator -v4l2 -webpresence -winpopup -xscreensaver" 0 kB
>
> Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB
> root@smoker / #
As you can see, I'm still on KDE 3.5. I'm just not ready for KDE 4
yet. If I filed a roach report, would it be fixed? Is there something
that I can do here to make this boo boo message go away and me stay
online? Maybe another port or something?
Ideas?
Dale

Can you check and see if Kopete for KDE4 is using port 5050 and
scs.msg.yahoo.com for the address? I'm hoping that they have changed
the port number or address as part of the change and MAYBE I can fool it
into thinking I'm up to date. I'm not holding my breath tho.

Thanks. Mine was grayed out to but I changed them to what you have and
it still does the same thing. So, I guess Yahoo is no more for me until
I KDE4 is ready to go.

You could use Pidgin, or just try updating kopete by itself (and its
dependant libs, of course). If KDE3 is in its down directory, then this
shouldn't be hard to do. |

Will it be fixed? Maybe, maybe not.
A quick Googling and search of KDE's bugzilla shows that even the KDE
4.3 version of Kopete is failing to connect to Yahoo Messenger (for at
least some people who filed bugs).
I myself use Pidgin and it connects to Yahoo just fine. |

Here's a little update. Yahoo won't even let me sign in anymore. It
just sits there.
By Yahoo.

I upgraded KDE 4 yesterday and I have been playing with it a little.
Kopete works in KDE 4 at least.
