What should be done now ?
install a better and more supported Global IM such as "pidgin"
Can I use "yum" to short the issue?
'yum install pidgin'

Subject: Problem with yahoo messenger, Fedora 7
Hi All,
I am trying to install yahoo messenger in Fedora 7. The steps I am
following are :
1. Download rh9.ymessenger-1.0.4-1.i386.rpm from
messenger.yahoo.com
<
http://messenger.yahoo.com/>
2. login as root
3. rpm -ihv rh9.ymessenger-1.0.4-1.i386.rpm
It is giving the error :
error: Failed dependencies:
gdk-pixbuf >= 0.8.0 is needed by ymessenger-1.0.4-1.i386
libgdk_pixbuf.so.2 is needed by ymessenger-1.0.4-1.i386
4. So I tried with "rpm -ihv --nodeps rh9.ymessenger-1.0.4-1.i386.rpm"
Preparing...
########################################### [100%]
1:ymessenger ###########################################
[100%]
5. cd /usr/bin/
6. chmod 777 ymessenger
7. ymessenger
It gave the error:
/opt/ymessenger/bin/ymessenger.bin: error while loading shared
libraries: libgdk_pixbuf.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory
What should be done now ? Can I use "yum" to short the issue?
Thanks in Advance,
Arnab
