It's been dead for some time since AOL had a hissy fit over the name. The new gaim is now called pidgin. It's not a new product really, just a version bump that is a name change. It was hard masked in portage very recently. Unfortunately for gaim users, the upgrade consists of unmerge gaim, merge pidgin, import settings. -- Alan McKinnon alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
