Public bug reported: Binary package hint: empathy
PROBLEM When I go to log into LiveJournal's XMPP server on Empathy, I get a dialogue that says: "The identity provided by the chat server cannot be verified. The hostname verified by the certificate doesn't match the server name. Expected hostname: livejournal.com Certificate hostname: www.livejournal.com" This dialogue comes up every time I open Empathy or reconnect to the server, unless I tell it to ignore certificate errors in the advanced preferences under "Accounts." HOW TO REPRODUCE 1. Sign up for a LiveJournal account. 2. Log into their XMPP server using Empathy. Instructions are available at http://www.livejournal.com/chat/ In light of the fact that Empathy's Accounts menu includes an option to ignore certificate errors, it seems likely that this error can be reproduced on other XMPP servers. EXPECTED BEHAVIOR Empathy will not throw up error messages that suggest that it lacks basic reading comprehension skills.
