Copied from Maemo bug https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3455. telepathy-gabble package version is apparently 0.6.2-0osso2 STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM: Google chat account enabled, wifi connection that seams to firewall something. (It does this only at home when I use a neighboring wifi AP, so I suppose firewalling may play a role here) EXPECTED OUTCOME: telepathy-gabble fails with dignity if something goes wrong on the connection ACTUAL OUTCOME: telepathy-gabble deadloop like crazy on a write. strace says an infinite loop of : write(4, "\212\27\303I\317\236\346\0012\4f\220%3\232\305\260\334\205\36u\353\222\265\314\361\365d\323\375\ 352bO"..., 3318) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) I hope there is no password in there :-) REPRODUCIBILITY: Just did it twice in a row as soon as I activate the gtalk account from here. Have to kill telepathy even after disabling the account. EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED: OTHER COMMENTS: Ask if you need a PCAP capture.
This might be another instance of Loudmouth's intermittent SSL blocking/non-blocking issues.
Simon, any URL/references? Or is there another ticket opened which is worth to track at http://loudmouth.lighthouseapp.com/dashboard ?
Bug #14341 and Bug #15397 might be related; we've found and fixed (or possibly worked around?) others in the past. Senko is the expert on these, I think...
This looks like a Loudmouth problem. Will has written patches that fix this problem for Loudmouth with SSL, but not pushed them upstream yet. This problem will go away in 0.9 when we use Wocky.
