A temporary workaround is downgrading to 0.1.12. You can download it from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/telepathy-idle. Choose one of the two, depending on your architecture: - https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/telepathy-idle_0.1.12-1ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb - https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/telepathy-idle_0.1.12-1ubuntu0.1_i386.deb
Run the following one by one after downloading on of the above: sudo apt-get remove telepathy-idle sudo dpkg -i telepathy-idle_0.1.12-1ubuntu0.1*.deb sudo apt-get install account-plugin-irc Run the following to prevent being nagged by updating to 0.1.14 again: sudo apt-mark hold telepathy-idle -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to telepathy-idle in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1149506 Title: telepathy-idle hogs ~25% cpu Status in “telepathy-idle” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Start empathy with IRC account.
