Bug Description
[Impact]
Bug #1018504 - Fixed in upstream, backported by upstream to stable release (see content below)
It seems an upstream issue with google contacts not being displayed is potential in stable release due to a race condition
[Test Case]
-setup a google talk account
-make sure contacts load
[Regression Potential]
None expected as other than the race condition bug the fixes are minor build related issues.
FROM UPSTREAM EMAIL:
I strongly suggest to distributions shipping GNOME 3.4 to update to this
version ASAP as it fixes a nasty race preventing GTalk contacts to be
loaded.
Empathy doesn't display buddy list for a xmpp (gtalk) or AIM account. See the screenshot.
Command line Output:
(empathy:6530): folks-WARNING **: Failed to find primary PersonaStore with type ID 'eds' and ID 'system'.
Individuals will not be linked properly and creating new links between Personas will not work.
The configured primary PersonaStore's backend may not be installed. If you are unsure, check with your distribution.
