kopete starts not accepting accents in the firsts tab, when two or more are open

[Bruno]

Binary package hint: kopete

I've installed Kopete 0.70.4 under Ubuntu Jaunty, using the KDE 4.2.4 Kubuntu repository, and I configured two accounts: one for MSN and another for Jabber. Next, I changed the options so all the chats get grouped in one window, with tabs.

When I open only one conversation with one of my contacts, either from MSN or Jabber, the accents are displayed correctly. But if someone else talks to me or I open another conversation, the accents in the firts tab will stop displaying correcty. Instead of an "á", I'll get and "´a". The same thing happens with three or more tabs.

This is extremely irritating because it basically make Kopete useless and unusable to me.

Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
Qt: 4.5.0
KDE: 4.2.4 (KDE 4.2.4)
Kopete: 0.70.4

With version 0.70.90, under Gnome, the accents are displayed correctly, but not with MSN Messenger contacts.

Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!
