Editing directly the log file is quite a lot of work just to have a complete history.

When I've checked Kopete 3.5 years ago and compared it to Pidgin (back then still named gaim), my decision was for Pidgin. But in the last years Kopete has really improved so I would like to use Kopete as my main chat-program. My Problem is that I have 3.5 years of important chat logs which I definitively don't want to loose. So a way to import my Pidgin logs to Kopete is a must have for me. Are there any news or some kind of workaround?

Go to the history viewer dialog (e.g. right-click on a buddy -> view history) and then click on the button in the top which says "import history".

You could achieve a backup or transfer of different histories very easily through saving, moving or copying kopete's log folder (HOME/.kde/share/apps/kopete/logs). I don't think that it would be necessary to have such a feature as part of the history plugin. Do you?

When trying to import the history for one of my contacts I get an error window with title "Cannot Map Nickname to Account", and asking me which was my nickname on that history, but it starts to show random contacts from my list. For example, trying with a MSN contact, on the details text I see the following error: WARNING: Cannot find matching account for xx...@hotmail.com (msn). Doing some testing, it seems the problem is with the name of the protocol directory on pidgin logs. For example, for MSN protocol, on ~/.purple/logs the directory is named "msn", but kopete directory on ~/.kde4/share/apps/kopete/logs is "WlmProtocol". If you rename pidgin's msn directory to "WlmProtocol" and then try to import the logs on kopete, the import process won't fail and it will start asking you which was your nickname on the conversations (which is very annoying btw, but it's a different issue), and apparently, it correctly imports your contacts. I have other observations about this feature but probably they deserve their own bug report. If so then please tell me and I'll open them: 1. accents and other characters (á, é, í, ó, ñ, etc) appear screwed, there's some encoding issue on the conversion. 2. The import history feature is badly placed: you access it when looking at a contact's history, but when you click on the "import History" it will import all history for all contacts of all accounts (not sure of this last one but it'll surely will do it for all contacts of the contact's protocol). If I'm looking at a contact's history, I expect that that "Import History..." button imports _that_ user history, not the history from all contacts in all accounts. Thsi feature should be moved to kopete's configuration dialog or to the File dialog, bellow the "Export contacts" entry. 3. It's REALLY annoying that the import feature asks hundreds of times which was my nickname on the history logs. I suppose this is because it isn't easy to detect on a pidgin's conversation which contact is from the user importing the history and which one is from the person(s) he was talking to ?

That's right, only the .html pidgin-log-files contain valuable information about which nicknames are the importers ones. The patch also contains a new algorithm that should fire much less queries about the used nicknames. Maybe you could test the import once again as soon as the patch made it into the trunk?
