file /opt/ymessenger/bin/ymessenger.bin from install of ymessenger-1.0.4-1 conflicts with file from package ymessenger-1.0.4-1
file /opt/ymessenger/lib/libgtkhtml.so.6 from install of ymessenger-1.0.4-1 conflicts with file from package ymessenger-1.0.4-1
 
But when i go to the /opt/ymessenger/bin/ the directory is empty. Presently i am using gaim but i like to use both.

oops! sounds like you may have deleted the files supplied by the RPM
instead of using 'rpm -e' to remove the package from your system.
 
Now your system thinks the package it still installed.
 
have you tried uninstalling the phantom package with 'rpm -e'?

You won't be able to just "rpm -e ymessenger". The package name includes the "-1.0.4-1", so try "rpm -e ymessenger-1.0.4-1".
