I can confirm that Empathy does not respect the Gconf setting (apps > empathy > ui > show_offline).
As Luca mentioned on IRC, this change is marked as being released upstream (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612448). Whether this function used to work or not is currently unknown, so it could be a regression or it might not be. ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #612448 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612448 ** Changed in: empathy (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- Offline contacts not showed by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566909 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
