Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: empathy
The empathy window seems to want to grow width wise as I type to fit the
text rather than to wrap it. This is annoying enough but when the entry
is long or quick enough this crashes my gnome session leaving me to log
in again.
To replicate write a say 40 characters copy and repeatedly paste it.
After a short time the empathy windows gets to the width of the screen
then goes gray and then the gnome session crashes.
I expect to be able to write as much text as I like in the empathy text
entry box without it crashing gnome, what happened was gnome crashed.
I'd like to be able to write as much text as I like without the window
resizing itself, what I get is an anooying flashing window that covers
over the application I have it next to and needs resizing after I've
sent the text.
