Package: gaim Version: 1:1.5.0+1.5.1cvs20051015-1 Severity: wishlist This morning I was forcibly disconnected by the AOL IM service and upon reconnection received these messages:
(04:14:30) AOL System Msg: AIM added a new AIM Bots group to your Buddy List. (04:14:30) AOL System Msg: Send IMs to moviefone and shoppingbuddy for great holiday flicks and gift ideas. (To remove 'em, just right-click and delete! Learn More) to all of my AIM accounts. Indeed, AOL had forced gaim to create a new group and added three sets of these new 'spim'ed services. Adding these bots to gaim's privacy/ignore list did nothing until I deleted the buddies, upon which I received (again, three copies) of this message: (04:19:45) AOL System Msg: The following bots are no longer available and have been removed from your buddy list: moviefone. To find out more about bots, go to (a deleted URL) (04:19:54) AOL System Msg: The following bots are no longer available and have been removed from your buddy list: shoppingbuddy. To find out more about bots, go to (a deleted URL) The 'AOL System Msg' 'buddy' is also unblockable by gaim. A useful upstream feature would of course be the ability to maintain client-side buddy list integrity and client-side filtering of IMs from undesirable AOL extensions to the AIM service. Thanks for taking this madness over from me, robot101. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-k7-smp Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages gaim depends on: ii gaim-data 1:1.5.0+1.5.1cvs20051015-1 multi-protocol instant messaging c ii libao2 0.8.6-1.1 Cross Platform Audio Output Librar ii libaspell15 0.60.3-5 GNU Aspell spell-checker runtime l ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.3-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libaudiofile0 0.2.6-6 Open-source version of SGI's audio ii libc6 2.3.5-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcrypt11 1.2.2-1 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglib2.0-0 2.8.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnutls11 1.0.16-14 GNU TLS library - runtime library ii libgtk2.0-0 2.6.10-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libgtkspell0 2.0.10-3 a spell-checking addon for GTK's T ii libice6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpango1.0-0 1.8.2-3 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libsm6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System Session Management ii libstartup-no 0.8-1 library for program launch feedbac ii libx11-6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxss1 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Screen Saver client-side library ii xlibs 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System client libraries m gaim recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- Robert Edmonds [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
