To reproduce 1) * Start Gwibber, thus automatically logging into my Twitter account * Click on the Searches icon (magnifying glass) * enter a string in the search box, eg. "kickstarter" * the search prepends a # and searches for "#kickstarter", thus not finding any tweets that used the word without making it a hashtag.
To reproduce 2) * In my Twitter stream, find any tweet with a hashtag. eg. #kickstarter. Note that "kickstarter" is underlined as a clickable link, but the preceding "#" is not. * Click the underlined hashtag. * Gwibber moves from the Home tab - showing my Twitter stream - to the Searches tab, but does not open the search "#kickstarter". It opens the search "#". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gwibber in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/994305 Title: Gwibber 3.4.0 can't handle hashtags and searches Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Using Gwibber for Twitter. Two problems, one old, one new since upgrading to Precise Pangolin. 1) If you enter a search string manually, Gwibber always automatically prepends it with a #. This means it is only possible to search for hashtags, which is not always the intent. 2) New in 3.4.0: if I click on a hashtag - eg. #samplehashtag -in my Twitter stream, it no longer opens a search for "#samplehashtag". It opens a search for "#". Originally opened as a question, #195739. The following in response to actionparsnip (andrew-woodhead666): $ lsb_release -a; uname -a; apt-cache policy gwibber No LSB modules are available.
