Looks like its a combination of 2 problems.

The first problem is that gwibber doesn't use the correct Authentication URL with google. I think it uses:

https://www.google.com/buzz/api/auth/OAuthAuthorizeToken?oauth_token=1%2FyBdQhWBIzyTWeSIgrVk612mqotnL3N99BbZa7VFNm-E&domain=gwibber.com&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fbuzz.readonly

when it should be using:

https://www.google.com/buzz/api/auth/OAuthAuthorizeToken?oauth_token=1%2FyBdQhWBIzyTWeSIgrVk612mqotnL3N99BbZa7VFNm-E&domain=anonymous&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fbuzz.readonly

The second problem is in:

/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gwibber/microblog/buzz.py

at line 63:

m["text"] = data["object"]["content"]

I changed this line in:

    try:
        m["text"] = data["object"]["content"]
    except:
        m["text"] = "None"


After authorizing gwibber using:

https://www.google.com/buzz/api/auth/OAuthAuthorizeToken?oauth_token=1%2FyBdQhWBIzyTWeSIgrVk612mqotnL3N99BbZa7VFNm-E&domain=anonymous&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fbuzz.readonly

and changing that line (i KNOW there is a better way to change that line) my buzz feeds apeared in gwibber.

Here is the output of  gwibber-service -d -o after the above mentioned modiffications:


$ gwibber-service -d -o

The only way o got rid of:

error: (56, 'GnuTLS recv error (-9): A TLS packet with unexpected length was received.')

was by recompiling libcurl and pycurl without GnuTLS. That does not seem to matter though, as Buzz works with stock libcurl.

Hope this helps!
