Bug Description
Binary package hint: empathy
When im chatting instead of my Name i see my ICQ number. Of course this only happens when using the ICQ-Protocol.
Gnome Bugzilla Description:
"I can't enter an alias for my ICQ account.
Empathy always shows my ICQ number as my alias.
When I try to enter an alias in "Private informations" (don't know if that is
the really the name of the menu item i've got the german localization), it is
instantly reverted to my ICQ number when I close the window or pick another IM.
This works with Jabber and MSN, only for ICQ it doesn't."

I was poking around on the Trac for libpurple and found this:

Wouldn't that mechanism be enough to set your own alias?
