IRC Contacts not shown

[David Prieto]

Binary package hint: empathy

The screenshot shows an IRC channel in which there are several people (one of them talks, another leaves the room). Yet, the list shows no one.

This seems to happen all the time in empathy. Even the buddy list shows less contacts than pidgin's buddy list.

Happening to me aswell using the same version, signed into one account using pidgin on my laptop then signed into empathy on my desktop and it didn't show me as online (doesn't show any contacts as online even though I know a few are)

According to the new upstream release changelog, it seems fixed now. Please wait until 2.27-3 version and confirm fixing or not.

Thanks for reporting !

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

This is indeed fixed with 2.27.3, just verified with it.

[Andrew Toogood (andrew-toogoods)]

This is not fixed in Natty 11.4
