--- Comment #5 from David Edmundson <kde davidedmundson co uk> 2011-12-02 23:07:36 --- It is a valid bug, though the title needs updating - he had butterfly installed. So it appears in the list. We have a plugin for butterfly so it has a nice UI. However butterfly is a pile of rubbish so uses the old password API and our stuff explodes. Our code prefers haze->MSN over butterfly->MSN but it was designed to fall back. We need to either: 1) Make it so we never show butterfly even if a plugin is available. 2) When dealing with something with a mandatory password field send it to MC (which has the problems of opening gnome-keyring) 3) Fix butterfly (I can't see this happening) 4) Replace the butterfly UI plugin with a giant flashing marquee that says "go away". Ideally we want to avoid hardcoding hacks, as there is also msn-pecan (a lib purple extension, which works perfectly with haze) which is yet another MSN protocol to handle. Plus we have the possibility of XMPP-MSN through gabble... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ KDE-Telepathy mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-telepathy
