wrong server address auto-entered

Binary package hint: drivel

 * drivel 2.0.3
 * expect upstream fix, made this bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=528432

When using Drivel 2.0.3 to log into a blog site for which you have a user
account, the default server address provided by Drivel is sometimes incorrect.

For example, wordpress.com. This is a blog with a Journal type of Movable Type.
When you select this type, the automatic server address displayed is:
http://mt-server/cgi-bin/mt-xmprpc.cgi

However, the correct address is a combination of your user name plus additional
wordpress.com stuff. For example, if your user name is "username", the server
address should be: http://username.wordpress.com/xmlrpc.php

(I wasn't able to find this server address easily searching google. Even the
WordPress forum had incorrect info.)

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 or 9.04?

The bug watch is not updating, closing this one in reflection of the closure of the upstream bug.
