Bug description:
I am running fully updated 13.04 64-bit. I simply cannot get
empathy/UOA to connect to facebook. When I add the account in UOA
everything seems to go well, facebook login page loads, it logs in
successfully, facebook recognizes the session as "safari on linux";
but upon completing the setup in UOA empathy refuses to connect to it
and keeps telling me it requires authorization.
I've Tried the following: Removing the account from UOA
Ending all active sessions on facebook and deleting the ubuntu app
rebooting
adding account in UOA, and allowing the ubuntu app to manage my messages
etc...
Didn't help at all. pidgin connects fine on the same computer.
Sometimes it does let me add it and it works for a while, but
eventually this issue happens again and leaves me totally unable to
successfully add a facebook account for quite some time, until it
randomly decides it wants to work again. Empathy/UOA in 13.04 has been
unreliable to the point of ridiculousness, the application is
basically unusable and can't handle the one basic task of an instant
messaging program, which is connecting to my accounts reliably.
