Description Nathan Adams 2004-10-09 06:00:43 UTC
ymessenger b0rks when another client (Windows at least, have not tested others) tries to send a file during a chat.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start ymessenger
2. start a chat with a Windows users (possibly any user)
3. have them send you a file

Actual Results:  
When you accept the file, ymessenger dies with the following message:

/opt/ymessenger/bin/ymessenger.bin: relocation error:
/opt/ymessenger/bin/ymessenger.bin: symbol MTaNYB7P1, version GLIBC_2.0 not
defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

Expected Results:  
The file should download somewhere.

Hmm, I don't seem to even have a libc.so.6 on my system:

$ find /usr -iname "libc.so.6"
$ find /opt -iname "libc.so.6"
$

Seemant: Any ideas?
Comment 3 Joseph Green 2005-01-10 09:31:04 UTC
This issue can be resolved by updating to version 1.0.6-1 of ymessenger.  According to http://public.yahoo.com/~mmk/#What's_changed_from_the_released_version_to_this_one, this is one of the bugs squashed in the update.

I've posted a partial fix for this on the forums under the gentoo username JoeG.  The only issue is of having to hand create the symlink for libgtkhtml.so.0.  The url is:

What's the best way to go about submitting this ebuild so that it's included in portage?  I'm sure lots of people have this problem.

Please, test this w/ ymessenger-1.0.6.1 and report back.
