It's not that difficult to reproduce, at least for me. The steps I take: 1.) Open Empathy (Applications > Internet > Empathy IM Client) 2.) Click Chat > Add Contact... 3.) For the Account drop-down list in the dialog box which appears, I have selected "New Yahoo! account". I move to the Identifier field and enter the identifier for a friend of mine ([[email protected]). Once I finish typing, this is automatically copied over to the Alias field and it allows me to select a group. I click on the Friends group I have previously set up, then go back to the Alias field and change it back to my friend's real full name. An icon now appears below the field marking her as "Offline". 4.) I click the Add button and the dialog closes. She now appears by her alias name in the Contact List window under my Friends group. 5.) Now I could just shut down, restart or log out of my computer, or even select Chat > Quit on Empathy's Contact List window. The results will be the same. The next time I restart Empathy and look in my list, all of my other contacts that I had previously entered into my groups are still there, but the new contact has mysteriously disappeared.
This behavior is exactly the same for me both on my laptop with Empathy 2.28 and on my desktop which is now running Empathy 2.30. -- Empathy allows no more than 3 contacts per group upon restart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561935 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
