Description Martin Klapetek 2012-03-12 06:26:51 UTC

When trying to use haze with IRC, the account does not advertise support for textChatrooms capability, therefore if we filter only accounts that have this capability in "join chat room" dialog, IRC gets filtered out. 

Because it does not advertise the primary capability for IRC, it renders the IRC account with haze unusable.

Comment 1 Simon McVittie 2012-03-13 02:52:28 UTC

I don't see any indication in the source that Haze supports chatrooms at all. Implementations welcome; I suspect libpurple might make it pretty difficult to do generically, though.

(Yes, this does make it pretty useless for IRC - use telepathy-idle for that.)

Comment 2 Martin Klapetek 2012-03-14 03:07:45 UTC

For the record, connecting to IRC with pidgin/libpurple does work, with rooms support, ie. IRC can be used with pidgin/libpurple. So it's just haze missing implementation.

Any pointers to the code? I might take a look.
