** Description changed:
- Binary package hint: empathy
+ As of 18th November 2010, there's an issue which can be worked around by
+ disabling SSL during ICQ login. Unfortunately, Empathy does not
+ currently offer a way to do this, so you'll have to use the command line
+ to change this option.
- Description of Upstream Bugreport (Gnome-Bug):
+ Disable your ICQ account.
+ In a terminal, run the following command: mc-tool update haze/icq/_3<your
uin>0 bool:use-ssl=false
+ The extra '3' and '0' are deliberate!
+ For instance, if your ICQ username is '12345', run: mc-tool update
haze/icq/_3123450 bool:use-ssl=false
+ If you get an unhelpful error telling you that ‘Method "GetAll" with
signature "s" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" doesn't exist’
then use mc-tool list | grep icq to check what the identifier for your account
is.
+ Re-enable your ICQ account.
+ If this doesn't work, disable your ICQ account, wait 10 minutes, and try
again.
- Since yesterday authentication to ICQ fails with the error message "<ICQ ID>
- Network Error". This happens on every computer I own. Maybe ICQ changed
- something concerning authentication? It worked fine before and nothing was
- changed on the existing accounts.
-
- Reproducible: Simply open Empathy and let it try to connect to ICQ on startup
- for an existing account.
-
- Running on Ubuntu Maverick 10.10.
