GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 700631
Negative unread count
Last modified: 2014-01-06 15:55:05 UTC
Created attachment 244705 [details] Screenshot After getting a chat message (xmpp) in gnome-shell and pressing the chat bubble to open an empathy window, sometimes the unread message count is displayed incorrectly (see screenshot). In the example I attached, it should actually be 3 unread I think. Also note that the empathy window shows up empty.
This used to work fine in former versions but seems to be horribly broken in 3.8, I often lose unread messages this way.
I can confirm seeing this bug in 3.8.4, this is only the second day of an X64, Gnomebuntu installation so its the default settings.
Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 662672 ***
