[Yousry Abdallah]

Binary package hint: empathy

Steps:

1. Create new Account
2. Select Google Talk Protocol

empathy output is (German): Getrennt -- Netzwerk-Fehler

this bug is known upstream and will be fixed soon. if you want to add a google talk account the workaround is to add talk.google.com to server when adding a gtalk account in empathy

New bug? It's THIS EXACT BUG.... it's not a new bug... it's THIS EXACT BUG...

Don't hate on me for getting this exact bug in Maverick... maybe it's GASP reoccuring and not 110% fixed for everyone all the time?

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

this is not an ordinary bug, it was a special one and the cause was that empathy was not adding talk.google.com to the server field when creating a new account. *this problem is fixed*
