After the upgrade from beta5 to beta6, a error appears on every start: "Unable To add" "Could not add the buddy 1 for an unknown reason. The most common reason for this is that you have the maximum number of allowed buddies in your buddy list." Deleting the account and adding it again didn't help, also deleting some users from the buddy list didn't help either. Deleting ~/.gaim is also causing the error after creating the new account. This error did not appear in <=beta5 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.start gaim beta 6 2. 3. arthur bladus # emerge --info Portage 2.1.1-r2 (default-linux/amd64/2006.1/desktop, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.4-r4, 2.6.19-gentoo-r4 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.19-gentoo-r4 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ Gentoo Base System version 1.12.6 Last Sync: Mon, 22 Jan 2007 10:50:01 +0000 ccache version 2.3 [enabled] app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.31-r3 dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r4 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.3 dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.14 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe -msse3 -fno-ident" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/X11/xkb" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/java-config/vms/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe -msse3 -fno-ident" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distlocks fixpackages metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/ http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/gentoo/ http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/" LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage /usr/portage/local/layman/mpd" SYNC="rsync://rsync.de.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X alsa alsa_cards_cmipci alsa_pcm_plugins_adpcm alsa_pcm_plugins_alaw alsa_pcm_plugins_asym alsa_pcm_plugins_copy alsa_pcm_plugins_dmix alsa_pcm_plugins_dshare alsa_pcm_plugins_dsnoop alsa_pcm_plugins_empty alsa_pcm_plugins_extplug alsa_pcm_plugins_file alsa_pcm_plugins_hooks alsa_pcm_plugins_iec958 alsa_pcm_plugins_ioplug alsa_pcm_plugins_ladspa alsa_pcm_plugins_lfloat alsa_pcm_plugins_linear alsa_pcm_plugins_meter alsa_pcm_plugins_mulaw alsa_pcm_plugins_multi alsa_pcm_plugins_null alsa_pcm_plugins_plug alsa_pcm_plugins_rate alsa_pcm_plugins_route alsa_pcm_plugins_share alsa_pcm_plugins_shm alsa_pcm_plugins_softvol apache2 bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts cairo cdr cli cracklib crypt cups dbus dlloader dri dvd dvdr eds elibc_glibc emboss encode fam firefox fortran gdbm gif gpm gtk gtk2 hal iconv input_devices_evdev input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse isdnlog jpeg kernel_linux lcd_devices_bayrad lcd_devices_cfontz lcd_devices_cfontz633 lcd_devices_glk lcd_devices_hd44780 lcd_devices_lb216 lcd_devices_lcdm001 lcd_devices_mtxorb lcd_devices_ncurses lcd_devices_text libg++ mad mikmod mp3 mpeg ncurses nptl nptlonly nvidia ogg opengl pam pcre perl png ppds pppd python quicktime readline reflection sdl session spell spl sse3 ssl startup-notification tcpd truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode userland_GNU video_cards_nv video_cards_nvidia video_cards_vesa vorbis xml xorg xv zlib" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS [ebuild R ] net-im/gaim-2.0.0_beta6 USE="dbus gtk perl startup-notification -avahi -bonjour -cjk -console -crypt -custom-cflags -debug -doc -eds -gadu -gnutls -groupwise -gstreamer -meanwhile -msn -nls -qq -sasl -silc -spell -ssl -tcl -tk -xscreensaver" 0 kB
Which protocol? All of them?
ICQ
(In reply to comment #2) > ICQ > net-im/gaim-2.0.0_beta6 - behaving very badly for me - crashing upon startup.
you may want to backup the ~/.gaim/contacts.xml file and re-adding all the accounts. The split between the AIM and ICQ stuff may be affecting you. (In reply to comment #3) > net-im/gaim-2.0.0_beta6 - behaving very badly for me - crashing upon startup. Can you post a stacktrace or what messages it gives you?
can you still reproduce the problem with net-im/pidgin. Please re-open this bug if you can.
Yes, the bug is still there. I even deleted all my contacts one by one and removed .gaim and .purple. After adding my icq-account pidgin starts with an empty contact list and still remports the same error :-( Here's the relevant part of the debug output: oscar: ssi: requesting rights and list oscar: locate rights: max sig len = 4096 oscar: buddy list rights: Max buddies = 600 / Max watchers = 2000 oscar: BOS rights: Max permit = 1000 / Max deny = 1000 connection: Activating keepalive. oscar: buddy list loaded oscar: ssi rights: max type 0x0000=3000, max type 0x0001=51, max type 0x0002=1000, max type 0x0003=1000, max type 0x0004=1, max type 0x0005=1, max type 0x0006=50, max type 0x0007=0, max type 0x0008=0, max type 0x0009=3, max type 0x000a=0, max type 0x000b=0, max type 0x000c=0, max type 0x000d=128, max type 0x000e=128, max type 0x000f=20, max type 0x0010=200, max type 0x0011=1, max type 0x0012=0, max type 0x0013=1, max type 0x0014=15, max type 0x0015=1, max type 0x0016=40, max type 0x0017=0, max type 0x0018=0, max type 0x0019=200, max type 0x001a=1, max type 0x001b=20, max type 0x001c=200, max type 0x001d=1, max type 0x001e=8, max type 0x001f=20, max type 0x0020=1, max type 0x0021=0, max type 0x0022=0, max type 0x0023=0, oscar: ssi: syncing local list and server list oscar: ssi: activating server-stored buddy list oscar: icq response: 9 bytes, 101450776, 0x0042, 0x0013 oscar: icq response: 11 bytes, 101450776, 0x07da, 0x0015 oscar: ssi: status is 0x0000 for a 0x0008 action with name no name oscar: ssi: status is 0x0001 for a 0x0008 action with name no item oscar: ssi: Action 0x0008 was unsuccessful with error 0x0001 oscar: Connecting to FLAP server 205.188.176.69:5190 of type 0x000d I think that: oscar: ssi: Action 0x0008 was unsuccessful with error 0x0001 might be the culprit.
Bug is gone with pidgin 2.0.0 final :)
