Description Louis C. Candell 2005-04-07 23:36:07 UTC 
What is Zinc? 

Zinc stands for Zinc Is Not Cur(fl|ph)oo. Zinc is a Yahoo! chat client for GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and Mac OS X. Zinc is written in Python and released under GPL. Zinc originally started out as a code fork of Curphoo 0.3.7 but it has been completely rewritten since then. Currently there is absolutely no Curphoo source code in Zinc.

Comment 3 Matthew Kennedy (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-04-08 22:08:54 UTC 
We cannot accept this ebuild because its upstream author is uncooperative and
this means it would place too high a maintenance burden on our project.
