A failure of PyYIMt today led me to realising that something had gone
wrong which made all the py-transports hard to start the way I was
running them.

I replaced my local PyAIMt, PyICQt and PyMSNt from the repository
mentioned on the wiki for Debian. Unfortunately, this does not include
PyYIMt.

I am still running my old version of that, but can only get it to work
in a screen... the init script I used no longer works (claims "No such
file or directory", about, I think, yahoo.py.

I am looking to get a more consistent installation of PyYIMt as soon as
possible. Can someone please advise, or tell me what has changed in
Debian Testing resently to break my setup?

Ask Fawzib if he'll build some for you.  You can find his email
address in the package details.

I made a copy of one of the other pyxxxt scripts for PyYIMt and I'm
using that instead of the supplied script.

Not a clue.  I noticed that my transport had died yesterday too, so
maybe it was something on the yahoo end.  Even though, the transport
shouldn't suddenly disappear.

I had each transport in its own directory under /usr/local - I had init
scripts that worked for a month or two.

I will try that.

I think it's more fundamental in the way I have it set up. At the moment
I have to run it in a screen.

The problem I was having affected all of them - I stopped PyICQt and
found it wouldn't restart, same error. That's what led to me getting the
proper packages.
