This bug also affects Hardy, with latest updates - Kopete version 0.12.7
on KDE 3.5.10.
There's also a 'warning only' variant of this bug: I have been getting
warnings from Yahoo Admin on this version, though I can still log in for
now. Presumably Yahoo will stop warning at some point and simply turn
off the old authentication mechanism.
I have managed to compiled Kopete from KDE 4.3.1 and bundled it together
with the required KDE and Qt dependencies as a tarball - quite a big
download but for those who don't want to switch to Pidgin or upgrade
from Hardy, it might provide a temporary solution.
See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7937521 for more about this
tarball and a download link.
Since this bug is affecting people on Hardy, I would like to propose
this is backported to Hardy - though it might be more efficient to
simply backport the patch to KDE 3.5.10 rather than build KDE 4.3.1.
Worth checking if SUSE has done a backport already.
