    { 1. Install libssl0.9.6 through Synaptic or
    2. Download this file from messenger.yahoo.com.

    3. In a terminal, write:
    replacing path with the path to where you downloaded the file.

    4. Run /usr/bin/ymessenger and follow the few simple instructions for setting up Yahoo! Messenger. An icon will be placed on your desktop.
    }


    I tried.. but at the very beginning it shows this error....

    E: Couldn't find package libssl0.9.6

    Wat shall i do now?

    Have you tried GyachI?

    I know it does file transfer and webcams work perfectly. It also does rooms and apparently has voice support, though I haven't gotten it to work yet.

    Anyway, the PPA can be found at the link below.

    I prefer Pidgin... but Ubuntu comes with Gnome's Empathy nowadays... Both may work as yahoo-messenger clients and you can communicate with all your YM and MSN contacts.
    Cheers!

    Agreed, its actually more full fledged and safer than Yahoo messenger itself.
