Yahoo has officially updated messenger such that you can no longer connect

You can try the attached patch with the port. This will ensure
dependencies on packages that actually exist. I had a problem
connecting though, receiving this error after entering my
login/password:
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/libexec/ymessenger/ymessenger.bin:
Undefined symbol Xu4L
Glancing at the binary, it's almost as if the symbol table is mangled...
I think this might call for a future linux-ymessenger port.
While I know the maintainer of the messenger port will have dealt with
this issue before he commits the update, but why would Yahoo have released
a new version today against depandants that are almost 6 months old?
My guess is that they haven't actually updated the client; they simply
did whatever magic was necessary to let the newer official versions
connect and left the rest of the build (including usage of GTK+-1.x)
alone.
People who are upset that the YMessenger package for FreeBSD isn't being
maintained should complain on the message board:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ymessenger/
This is especially important now that it seems Yahoo! has discontinued
support for third-party clients. There doesn't seem to be any other
contact information for the Unix messengers.
