Can't create any telepathy accounts
Last modified: 2007-05-30 18:59:05 UTC
Please describe the problem: When I press Create to create an account, nothing happens. Gossip prints this to the console: ** (gossip:3853): WARNING **: Could not open configuration file for:'salut' ** (gossip:3853): CRITICAL **: gossip_telepathy_cmgr_new_account: assertion `cmgr_info != NULL' failed (gossip:3853): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (gossip:3853): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed ** (gossip:3853): CRITICAL **: gossip_protocol_setup: assertion `account != NULL' failed ** (gossip:3853): CRITICAL **: gossip_account_set_name: assertion `GOSSIP_IS_ACCOUNT (account)' failed ** (gossip:3853): CRITICAL **: gossip_account_manager_add: assertion `GOSSIP_IS_ACCOUNT (account)' failed (gossip:3853): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed Although the underlying but is a problem with libtelepathy (probably)... Gossip should not ignore the error. Steps to reproduce: Actual results: Expected results: Gossip should pop up an error window explaining that something went wrong instead of ignoring the error Does this happen every time? Other information:
Thanks for the bug report. As announced [1] yesterday we have decided to remove the Telepathy backend and go back to our initial goal of becoming a Jabber/XMPP client. As this bug is related to the Telepathy backend we will close it as obsolete as the code will no longer live in our code repository. If you want to continue to use a Telepathy client we suggest you take a look at the Gossip fork Empathy [2].
