And what use is an instant messenger that does not support Yahoo?
I don't know, I do not use Yahoo personally. It has multiple

No, we do not include or maintain that software. The
Trinity project is
very concerned about the legal status of software included in our
repository, and software with questionable legal status that does not
add
significant functionality to Trinity is not included. I suggest that
Trinity users stick to the legal alternatives of Kopete and
Konversation.
The problem there is only with one file. As a project with limited resources we do not support
applications that:
a.) Are maintained upstream
b.) Have standalone replacements that fully include the feature set of the
application in question
c.) Would utilise an unusual amount of Trinity developer resources to
maintain, especially applications where there are legal problems or b.)
above applies.
d.) Have a very low user base under Trinity.
I just asked you, whether you have it, not why you do not have it.
