Bug Description

Binary package hint: gwibber

This is a regression in gwibber 2.9x.xx series

when I add a twitter account in gwibber, after successful addition I start to get the oldest two private messages and then see the latest two private messages in a notify-osd popup. this is annoying and hangs gwibber so I have to kill it and then start again to get a working timeline.

this is a regression from maverick and also is a security issue.
