@shubes, I completely agree.  I am also using Hardy because it is an LTS
version. I also want to see this bug stay open until the issue is
resolved in Hardy 8.04. It is unfortunate that Yahoo set this ball in
play, however from what I understand the authentication method will now
be more secure and will hopefully stop the Yahoo messenger "spim" that I
was beginning to get with increased frequency. Thanks to the Pidgin team
for getting to the bottom of the problem, just don't leave us LTS folks
hanging!
