Editorial Review of Pidgin for Linux

AOL actually offers a Linux version of its ubiquitous instant messenger, but why limit yourself to just one network? Pidgin (formerly known as Gaim) lets you connect with friends on more than a dozen IM networks, including AIM, ICQ, Yahoo! Messenger, MSN Messenger, and Google Talk.

--Scott Spanbauer

Note from developer: To install Pidgin on Fedora Core 4, 5 or 6, save the pidgin.repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d/

You can then use "yum install pidgin", or the Package Manager (pirut) to install Pidgin.

We do not provide packages for Fedora 7 or later. If you use Fedora 7 or later, please wait for the Fedora developers to release updated packages.
