Empathy doesn't reconnect after wakeup

Originally reported at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/924468 After wakeup, empathy doesn't reconnect automatically when the network is brought up again you can check this by leaving the window opened or by looking at the messages indicator it'll reconnect only after you start the empathy application again (either by selecting "Chat" in the messages indicator or by opening empathy from the launcher if the window has been previously closed) ("Automatically connect on startup" is still checked in the preferences) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: empathy 3.3.4-0ubuntu1
MC logs please.
By MC you mean mission-control, right? the logs I gathered are on the downstream bug page, here's the link to the mc one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/924468/+attachment/2704903/+files/mission-control-01-02-12_09-30-26.log
Looking at this log, the accounts seem to be connected.
I saved the log after reconnecting manually, should I have fetched it before? What do you need to work on this bug?
(In reply to comment #4) > What do you need to work on this bug? Debug information from the time when the bug happened.
Created attachment 206608 [details] mission control debug log ok, I got this log before forcing empathy to reconnect (and after network manager reconnected)
Thanks for the log, I forwarded the bug to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45531
I'm wondering is this could be a side effect of Empathy and MC both managing connectivity. Now that bug #668498 has been fixed, it would be good if you could try reroducing this with Empathy 3.3.5 (will be released next Monday).
yesterday I already built Empathy from git master (to verify https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621859 ), I guess that build would be fine as well to verify that hypothesis?
Ok, I used that build (made at commit 0dc2ba9ea63c7d7d7f46b4d4e8b9311dfad823bb ) and indeed the problem seems to be absent I can't remember how it worked before this bug, but it still seems it doesn't work perfectly: after networkmanager reconnects, empathy stays unconnected for quite a while, then throws an error (only for the facebook account), then successfully connects on its own (both to gtalk and facebook, don't know about bonjour)... after all of this, there's a spinner that keeps moving forever, suggesting that it's still trying to connect to something (thus wasting cpu cycles) manually disconneting in empathy and reconnecting fixes this
Created attachment 206684 [details] same log, but done with the 0dc2ba9ea6 build
Thanks for testing. With the master version Empathy doesn't do any connectivity management any more, it's purely mission-control's job. Would you mind forwarding these infos to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45531
