Description Olivier Crête 2008-11-21 10:36:49 UTC

Since TP_ERRORS is now automatically registered, it breaks the API semantics (and stream-engine) which used to have to register it directly.

And causes this warning:
** WARNING **: Metadata for error domain "tp_errors" already registered

I guess either we accept the ABI break, up the tp-glib requirement on stream-engine and live on our lives...

Or you can revert the change...

I don't think provoking a warning, but then working correctly, on non-connection-managers that export objects (CMs never needed to register TP_ERRORS, the library did it) is a major problem. The bug was that TP_ERRORS was *not* auto-registered, IMO. So I'd suggest just increasing s-e's dependency on telepathy-glib.
