Gossip doesn't connect to Jabber

[David Nielsen]

Binary package hint: gossip-telepathy

I'm getting the following error when attempting to connect to Jabber (GoogleTalk):

** (gossip:29689): CRITICAL **: gossip_contact_add_presence: assertion `GOSSIP_IS_CONTACT (contact)' failed

For connecting to Google Talk check last comment on this help ticket - https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gossip-telepathy/+question/3963

And subscribe yourself to bug 89157

My settings are correct - I can connect just fine to MSN using the MSN-telepathy bridge so I doubt I'm affected by the Network-Manager issue which was referenced in the answer. This does appear to be a new issue.

David,

You misunderstood me. I pointed you to that help ticket to verify your Google Talk settings.

[David Nielsen (davidnielsen-deactivatedaccount)]

As stated in my previous comment, I understood you just fine, I verified that my settings were indeed correct - I know this especially because this very profile was used a few days ago to communicate using gossip-telepathy via googletalk on Fedora Development. I assure you, my settings are 100% correct. In the very same bug you pointed me to was mentioned a secondary issue surrounding NetworkManager, from which I do not suffer.

Gossip upstream has quit supporting telepathy. Work is going on in the empathy project now. Do you have the problem with empathy (in gutsy)?

Closing as invalid as gossip-telepathy is deprecated and reporter didn't reply to latest comments.
