Re: MSN protocol plugin for conversations and contacts 0.7 issue
 

fraaaaanka, how did u get the 0.7 version?

Re: MSN protocol plugin for conversations and contacts 0.7 issue
 

and how to get the 0.7 version? It did not worked for me because I had the 0.8...

Re: MSN protocol plugin for conversations and contacts 0.7 issue
 

Firstly, please don't file bug reports for these packages on this forum. I don't read it, so the bugs don't get fixed. The bug tracker is linked to from the maemo package page.

Next, the package which has version numbers 0.7 and 0.8 is simply the plugin. It doesn't know anything about the MSN protocol. As a result, telling us these version numbers is useless. More useful is the versions of telepathy-butterfly and python-papyon.

The bug about not being able to start a chat with your contacts has been fixed as of telepathy-butterfly 0.5.4 -- see http://bugs.freedesktop.org/24878

Next, I'm glad you've been able to get video calling working, but am sad to see it no longer working. Please give your telepathy-butterfly and python-papyon versions, and logs:

Without logs, I can't tell you anything. You need to get some logs for when it works, and when it doesn't work, and attach them both to a bug and the aforementioned bug tracker. To obtain logs, follow these steps:

1. Install python-dbus.
2. Download http://people.collabora.co.uk/~jonny/debug.py and put on your phone.
3. Disconnect from MSN.
4. Wait 5-10 seconds.
5. Connect again.
6. From the command line in the same directory you copied the debug.py file to, execute "python debug.py butterfly > butterfly-log".
7. Try a video call.
8. Wait for a few seconds after it fails/hangs up/you hang up.
9. Use Ctrl+C on the command you ran on the command line.
10. File a bug with the logs. If a bug has already been filed, attach your logs there.

Hope that helps.

Hi! ... nope ... i just sign in and it work ...

May be you need to reboot first? ...

i am using Pidgin Protocols only... may be a conflict with other protocols that you have installed?

Cya!

Re: MSN protocol plugin for conversations and contacts 0.7 issue
 

I'm having issue with 0.7 as well. Everytime I login a lot of contacts get added to my contact list including the ones that I've already deleted. Even if I delete them again.. they show up when I login the next time.

Re: MSN protocol plugin for conversations and contacts 0.7 issue
 

Happened for me but I rebooted and then was able to sign in

Re: MSN protocol plugin for conversations and contacts 0.7 issue
 

That's why I don't use the "butterfly" (MSN) plugin but Haze or Pecan instead...

There's a bug report on it here...
