Type:	Bug Fix Advisory
Severity:	N/A
Issued on:	2007-06-27
Last updated on:	2007-06-27

Details

An updated pidgin package that fixes many bugs, adds features and
implements a required name change (from gaim to pidgin) is now available.

Pidgin is a multi-protocol Internet Messaging client.

The Instant Messaging Freedom Corporation has discontinued support for the
Gaim client and released the software under the Pidgin name due to a legal
settlement.

This update fixes numerous bugs over the previous gaim package by shipping
the upstream version (2.0.2).

As well, this update fixes additional bugs and adds support for the Lotus
Sametime Connect and Apple Bonjour protocol.

Users of Gaim or pidgin should upgrade to this updated package.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
