Description daryl herzmann 2008-05-15 03:35:47 UTC 
Hi,

This may be a goose chase and a waste of your time.  My appologies if so...

Sorry for the delay, but I got around to messing with the Pidgin in the RHEL5.2
beta channel (pidgin-2.3.1-1.el5).  I see this version has the badness of
automatically relaying user tune status's to the server and perhaps incorrectly
displaying those status for Jabber accounts :(

So my accounts appear with a tune icon next to them in the buddy lists.  While
this doesn't necessarily hurt anything, we are supposed to be using Pidgin for
professional activities and showing that we may be listening to tunes instead of
working is a problem....  Kind of lame I know,  even more lame is that Pidgin
sends these messages without an ability to turn them off! :)

thanks and sorry to whine,

daryl

Pidgin is not actually automatically setting your tune, it doesn't know how to
do that.  (An external plugin must notify it of the song you are listening to,
etc.)  However, there was a bug in all released versions up to and including
2.3.1 (fixed in 2.4.0) where Pidgin always reported the user tune attribute with
empty tune information.  This status will show regardless of whether or not you
are actually playing music, or have a plugin installed to inform Pidgin of such
information.

This was fixed in upstream revision a39fccd819e6dd09002cf3a2daa9d85fffa034e0:

http://developer.pidgin.im/viewmtn/revision/diff/ac040c5e99f54464b25a7cc17502c1d25413d9cb/with/a39fccd819e6dd09002cf3a2daa9d85fffa034e0

I don't know if this applies cleanly to 2.3.1; I suspect it does.

Hi Ethan,

Thanks for straightening out my ignorance.  Will look forward to future releases...

Greetings,

I suspect this ticket can be closed with 2.5.1 in for RHEL5.3 ?

thanks!

Daryl, could you please test the binary here and report back?
Comment 7 daryl herzmann 2008-11-23 19:52:31 UTC 
Hi Warren,

Hopefully I am not missing something obvious, but attempting to use your RPMs I get:

$ pidgin 
pidgin: symbol lookup error: pidgin: undefined symbol: gst_registry_fork_set_enabled

My system is fully updated RHEL 5.2 x86_64

The buildroot turned out to be broken.  Waiting on someone else to fix it so I can rebuild a proper RHEL-5.2 test binary.
Comment 9 daryl herzmann 2008-11-25 18:29:12 UTC 
Hi Warren,

I tried the updated RPMs and this issue appears to be resolved.
