Description aditsu 2016-08-19 06:08:38 UTC 
Yahoo is killing their current yahoo messenger protocol and leaving millions of users out in the cold. They have a completely new protocol now (that has various deficiencies).
I found that there is a plugin for pidgin that supports this new protocol: https://github.com/EionRobb/funyahoo-plusplus (via https://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/ThirdPartyPlugins ). So I would like to see this added to portage.

I created a live ebuild and added a pull request here: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/2374, with a slightly different package name.

I will apply for maintainership of the package.
