although I recommend upgrading to 5.14.0 instead. 5.13.x were a development branch and will not receive bugfix releases. ** Tags added: patch-accepted-upstream quantal -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to telepathy-mission-control-5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1060964 Title: does not complete Empathy 3 password migration if MC < 1:5.12.1-3 was ever used Status in Telepathy Mission Control 5: Unknown Status in “telepathy-mission-control-5” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “telepathy-mission-control-5” package in Debian: Unknown Bug description: This is Debian #687933 and is fixed upstream in 5.12.3 and 5.13.2. (We'll be doing a 5.14.0 stable-branch release shortly, with the same code as 5.13.2.) Steps to reproduce ================== * Have Empathy on an old Ubuntu version (Empathy 2.x) with an IM (e.g. Jabber) account * Upgrade to a version of Ubuntu that had empathy (>= 3) but telepathy-mission-control-5 (<< 1:5.12.1-3) * Change your IM password (e.g. via your provider's website) Expected result =============== * Empathy tries to sign in with your saved password, fails, and prompts you for your password. You provide the new password. It works. Actual result ============= * Mission Control still knows your old password and tries to sign in with it. Empathy is never asked for your password, and does not have the opportunity to ask you for the new one. Sign-in fails and it is non-obvious how to recover. Workaround ========== Run seahorse and delete Mission Control's version of the password - the one that seahorse calls a "Telepathy password" (as opposed to "Instant messaging password", which is Empathy's version).
