Bug Description

for the last few weeks when I attempt to log in, I receive an instant sms from telegram: "You are using an outdated app that doesn't support 2-step verification. Please update your app to log in to Telegram."

I have tried to reinstall the app, but that did not help in any way.

Steps to reproduce:
1. start telegram
2. add phone number +44 7xxxxxxxxx
3. Telegram displays an error in red: "Incorrect phone number"
4. Several seconds later an sms arrives: "You are using an outdated app that doesn't support 2-step verification. Please update your app to log in to Telegram."

The phone number is correct and telegram works absolutely fine on lubuntu 15.10, ubuntu 15.10 and win7pro.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that your bug report is not filed about a specific source package though, rather it is just filed against Ubuntu in general. It is important that bug reports be filed about source packages so that people interested in the package can find the bugs about it. You can find some hints about determining what package your bug might be about at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. You might also ask for help in the #ubuntu-bugs irc channel on Freenode.

To change the source package that this bug is filed about visit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1517246/+editstatus and add the package name in the text box next to the word Package.
