Bug Description
After a recent Ubuntu upgrade, Gwibber quit showing updates. There is no error reported and new updates show in notification bubbles. The Replies tab is also empty. I'm running Hardy.

Also, it seems the new version that lp:~jorge packaged (.7.2) hasn't fixed this.
Is it possible that wherever the messages are being stored is "full" ?

Ok, I found out what my problem was, I had the following in my sources.list:
deb http://
deb-src http://
I'm unsure when or why I added these, but when I removed them, removed and renstalled gwibber, gwibber was fully functional again (.7.2)
I'm not going to close this bug in case lp:~Cezar is still experiencing trouble, but it seems to be the webkit dependencies that were breaking gwibber for me.

I remember that the webkit ppa was used because the gwibber ppa needed a
never version of webkit than Hardy had in it's repos. IIRC.

Specifically, the PPA version is 1.0.1-4+
I'm guessing something in Webkit's trunk that was applied to the PPA package broke something.

I'm using 8.04 and am seeing the same issue. I've tried removing and reinstalling gwibber but with no joy. I did install the libwebkit-1.0-1 upgrade yesterday and am assuming that this is the problem.
Is there any way of reverting to the previous version?

Kimme: you're using Intrepid, right? Gwibber works just fine on my home machine which I run Intrepid on, I only had this problem at work with Hardy, where libwebkit isn't available in the official repos. I'm guessing that on Intrepid this happens only if you use libwebkit from webkit-team's PPA. Not sure about that, though.

You could still theoretically have the PPA libwebkit installed; just
disabling the Webkit PPA doesn't downgrade your package to the
intrepid(-updates) version. Can you post the output of `apt-cache showpkg
libwebkit-1.0-1`?

Yes, it does look like you still have the PPA version installed.
You can either downgrade the package via Synaptic:
Select libwebkit-1.0-1 and go to Package | Force Version.... Select the
version from either intrepid-updates or intrepid (depending on which
repositories you have enabled).
Or, if you're like me and only added the Webkit PPA because you needed it
for Gwibber :), try the following to disable/remove it:
In Synaptic, Settings | Repositories. (Or go to System | Administration |
Software Sources.) On the Third-Party Software tab, find the Webkit PPA (
http://
disable it) or highlight it and press Remove to get rid of it completely.
(I'd suggest disabling it for now, and then removing it later if you find
you don't need it again.)
Let me know if that doesn't work.

@Dominic:
I spent some time with Ken VanDine trying to isolate the problem. It seems like using JavaScript to add content inside of a tag is not working in several revisions of WebKit. The problem is only exhibited in some cases, however, and not others. When I tested a really basic example with a simple string, it worked consistently. I suspect that it's choking on something in the strings that Gwibber is trying to append. I'm convinced that it's an upstream problem, but I can't find a pattern or narrow it down with enough specificity to file a meaningful bug report upstream.

My problem stemmed from Midori - I added repos and got .04 version of webkit and Midori runs very nicely.
Basically, I've had to revert to the earlier webkit and earlier Midori to get Gwibber back - but it's a fair sacrifice to make. I liked the new Midori - very promising.

Yeah, I'm 99% sure this is a different bug. The rawhide issue spits out errors like:

console message: undefined @1: ReferenceError: Can't find variable: setAccountConfig

console message: undefined @1: ReferenceError: Can't find variable: setAccountConfig
Those are functions in the theme.html file, part of the jquery script. It looks like either pywebkitgtk or webkit-gtk isn't able to handle these in the latest versions.

Also, it's a big problem for Hardy users, not just Intrepid users. From what
I understand, a lot of people use the ppas in Hardy to get a reasonably new
version.

I'm looking for an update on the progress of this bug. As time drags on and on I'm becoming more and more frustrated. If the solution is downgrading. I please please ask that it be done for the Hardy PPAs. As a Hardy user I'm feeling left out. I understand it's a PPA, but it's the only place to get gwibber for Hardy and as such it should at least work. Especially if all it takes is a downgrade.
If there isn't the ambition or will of the managers of the PPA to do the downgrade or fix then I think the section of the wiki stating the PPAs for Hardy users should be notated to reflect the situation that they currently do not work.

@Cezar: As I understand it, the problem is that the newer revisions of WebKit from the WebKit PPA are exhibiting this bug. We don't have control over what is in the WebKit PPA nor do we have the ability to fix this specific WebKit bug.
We are currently investigating a new approach to theming that will effectively circumvent this issue and make it so that we don't have to worry about specific revisions to WebKit. I'm going to be getting this work done and into trunk shortly after we get all of the loose ends tied up for Jaunty.
As a side note, I'd like to say that we don't consider Hardy support to be a high priority, and we will not be supporting it in ongoing development for the full duration of Canonical's Hardy support cycle.

Ryan, we've moved to this in Fedora 11, and it definitely fixes the core problem, but it introduces some other less painful issues, specifically:
* Random crashes (I'm trying to pin this down, I know it is painfully vague)
* Double bubbling (each message received gets bubbled up (as a popup bubble) twice, with about a 30 second or so delay between instances of the same message popping up)

I really appreciate the feedback! My current goal is to get the template-
The double bubbling sounds very strange. I have no idea what could possibly be causing that. I have definitely not observed it on Ubuntu. Does this happen to *every* message or just some? There are some that will inevitably be duplicated, like if a @reply is shown on the main tab and on the replies tab, it will be shown twice. I'm still working on fixing that issue and it's not specific to the template-
Could you tell me more about the random crashes? When do they happen? There are some WebKit bugs that are causing problems for us and they are making Gwibber crash sometimes for some users. That's not specific to the template-
Thanks!! :-)

Well, the random crashes are hard, because thankfully, they're few and far between.
The double bubbles happen on EVERY message, which is rather annoying. I threw in some very crude debugging code:
--- gwibber/

new_

if len(new_messages) > 0:

body = microblog.
image = hasattr(message, "image_path") and message.image_path or ''
n = gintegration.
+ print('popping up message: %s' % body)
gtk.
Then, I ran gwibber and waited:

popping up message: Off to Columbus today, and no, that's not some arty metaphor. Although why that would be thought metaphoric is beyond me. I'll shut up now.

There is about a 30 second pause between the two bunches of bubbles. It feels almost like a dbus timeout issue.
libnotify is 0.4.5, dbus is 1.2.12 (ubuntu may have older versions?)

The new template system in trunk resolves this bug. Please remember to install the Mako template library before you test it.

Although I'm unsure if I had any upgrade prior, I'm experiencing the same problem. No significant changes to my setup, no errors reported via the command line or through View -> Errors, and no updates shown inside of the window.
