Choqok cannot refresh Twitter "friends list" anymore

[Swâmi Petaramesh]

Binary package hint: choqok

Considering this as a regression, as "it used to work".

When trying to refresh Twitter friends list for sending DMs, Choqok seems to be in a "waiting forever" condition where the friends list never gets updated.

Shortly afterwards any interaction with Twitter becomes impossible as (even after having stopped/restarted Choqok) it spits messages stating that Twitter won't talk anymore because it's limited to 350 requests/hour.

So I assume that Choqok's way to get the friend's list is buggy and makes a huge number of requests to the server...?

Closing in favor of KDE report. This issue ought to be fixed in Choqok directly, rather than Kubuntu, hence tracking it here does not help the cause. :)
