Yellow Dog Linux Bugfix Announcement
------------------------------------

Package:	gaim
Issue Date: 	January 13, 2002	
Priority:	low
Advisory ID: 	YDU-20030127-1

1. 	Topic:

	Updated gaim packages are available.

2. 	Problem:

	The previous gaim errata (YDU-20030113-1) removed gaim's gnome plugin.
	As the plugin was originally shipped as part of gaim with Yellow Dog
	Linux 2.3, its removal is considered a regression.

	This update fixes the problem by providing the previously updated gaim
	packages with the gnome plugin.

3. 	Solution:

   	a) Updating via apt...
   	We suggest that you use the apt-get program to keep your
   	system up-to-date. The following command(s) will retrieve
   	and install the fixed version of this update onto your system:

		apt-get update
		apt-get install gaim

   	b) Updating manually...
	Download the updates below and then run the following rpm command.
   	(Please use a mirror site)

		rpm -Fvh [filenames]
		ftp://ftp.yellowdoglinux.com/pub/yellowdog/updates/yellowdog-2.3/
			ppc/gaim-0.59.8-0.2.3b.ppc.rpm

4. Verification

I wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or tampered with,
examine the md5sum with the following command: rpm --checksig --nogpg filename
