Description Alex Hudson (Fedora Address) 2007-10-18 20:10:38 UTC

Description of problem:

I have an AIM account, and Pidgin seems to be unable to retrieve my buddy list.
It claims it's a temporary error at the moment.

However, it brings up this warning in a dialog box, and keeps opening new
dialogs until I kill it. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible: every time, at the moment.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start up pidgin with an AIM account and a buddy list
2. 
3.
  
Actual results:

Dialog boxes immediately start popping up until manual process kill

Expected results:

Single dialog box comes up.

What version of pidgin was this with? Does it still happen with Pidgin 2.4.0
(available in updates-testing for Fedora 7)?

Comment 2 Stu Tomlinson 2008-04-10 13:51:07 UTC

The information we've requested above is required in order
to review this problem report further and diagnose/fix the
issue if it is still present.  Since there have not been any
updates to the report since thirty (30) days or more since we
requested additional information, we're assuming the problem
is either no longer present in the current Fedora release, or
that there is no longer any interest in tracking the problem.

Setting status to "INSUFFICIENT_DATA".  If you still
experience this problem after updating to our latest Fedora
release and can provide the information previously requested, 
please feel free to reopen the bug report.

Thank you in advance.
