Gwibber version 3.4.2-0ubuntu2.1 fixes this bug. The changelog states:
>gwibber (3.4.2-0ubuntu2.1) precise-proposed; urgency=low > > * debian/patches/lp_1058672.patch > - Use webkit's onload-event instead of title changed to detect successful > facebook login. Facebook changed the login_success.html file from html > to plain text which does not have a title set. (LP: #1058672) > -- Ken VanDine <[email protected]> Thu, 18 Oct 2012 11:24:24 -0400 To install this on Ubuntu 12.04 enable the "Pre-releace updates (precise-proposed)" in Software Sources and install gwibber-service- facebook ~$ sudo apt-get install gwibber-service-facebook Then remove the "Pre-releace updates (precise-proposed)" from Software Sources so you don't update and install all the newest untested versions of everything. ;-) P.S. I've tested this and posts I make from Gwibber now show up in facebook, however there must be something else wrong with my Gwibber too because I don't see any details of anything in the gwibber window, it's just a gray window (see attached pic) :-( ** Attachment added: "Screenshot from 2012-12-10 23:12:12.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gwibber/+bug/962535/+attachment/3456309/+files/Screenshot%20from%202012-12-10%2023%3A12%3A12.png -- 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/962535 Title: Gwibber in Ubuntu 12.04 will not complete facebook authorisation Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: facebook reports access by the account but Gwibber [eventually] returns to "authourise" again - never allowing completion. all details entered as per [sucessful] useage in Ubuntiu 10.04 & 11.10 - problems only in 12.o4 version / implementation of Gwibber.
