SOFTWARE VERSION: MAEMO5 - 3.2010.02-8 telepathy-extras 0.7 EXACT STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM: 1.1. Receiving "Authorization Request" 1.2. Open request 2. Open conversation EXPECTED OUTCOME: 1. Contact's name or nickname (user set if available or server ones) showing as requesting entity, with request message. 2. Menu-Title shows Contact's name or nickname ACTUAL OUTCOME: 1.ICQ/JID/skypeID showing but nothing else. 2. "IM - <$IM-ID>" REPRODUCIBILITY: always EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED: extra protocol plugins (account-plugin-extras) OTHER COMMENTS: I would expect to find at least an info page in the menu where I would be able look-up things like last-seen and server-nickname or such. This is really pain if you receive spamming requests and contacts as the client doesn't have a spam-captcha. So bare requests without further info I just have to accept to not accidentally permit a friend who's client messed up his auth'es because I cannot look-up or check if I know this account.
(In reply to comment #0) > ACTUAL OUTCOME: > 1.ICQ/JID/skypeID showing but nothing else. > 2. "IM - <$IM-ID>" Your original bug report is about ICQ specifically, but this bug report appears extremely generic. Please be more specific when this occurs, and with which protocols. > EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED: > extra protocol plugins (account-plugin-extras) I've never heard of "account-plugin-extras". > OTHER COMMENTS: > I would expect to find at least an info page in the menu where I would be able > look-up things like last-seen and server-nickname or such. I have no influence over the closed Maemo UI.
> Your original bug report is about ICQ specifically, but this bug report appears > extremely generic. Please be more specific when this occurs, and with which > protocols. I changed it to generic as I see this at all protocols I use. SO to be more specific, I use: Jabber ICQ Skype msn and this happens on all of them, requests don't show names or nicks but account names or numbers, and the menu shows account-names or numbers as well. The menu is MaemoUI, I guess another bugreport to file at mae but is the auth request not just the same? > I've never heard of "account-plugin-extras". maybe its a meta package for all those plugins? > I have no influence over the closed Maemo UI. so the info is available through the plugin but the Maemo UI is not using it. Maybe then I was just right starting this bug at maemo? I don't think this is a 'bug', but something no one thought about. It's just not useful the way it is at the moment, it could be autoaccepting ICQ (from the others I most of the time can tell if I know them or not) auth-requests, at least it wouldn't bugger me (please dont).

Actually, I believe you've got this the wrong way round, somehow. I'm informed that the maemo UI *only* shows contact's names, not their jid/icq number/etc. so unless there is something wrong with haze, then you won't *ever* get the, say, ICQ number. Seeing as you're claiming otherwise, it leads me to think there might be something up with haze. I think this might be a dup of bug #25157, which is specific to ICQ.
> telepathy-extras only provides ICQ and MSN, so I will ignore Skype and Jabber. I am quiet new at looking into telepathy and didnt find my way around yet. > Actually, I believe you've got this the wrong way round, somehow.

Seeing as you're claiming otherwise, it leads me to think > there might be something up with haze. mmh, this is the same for all IMservices I use, they all show the ID and not the contacts name (to get me right, we are talking about requests and menu-title only, in conversations the text-msg-line does show the contacts name in front of it.) So if I get it right, the plugin does already do the match and not the maemoUI so all I see is already wrong...?
