Comment 1 mehmet.giritli 2010-09-16 05:12:34 UTC
So, unlike in the previous versions, downgrading gnutls to 2.8 is not a work around anymore? In other words, until gnutls bumps itself with the backported patches, there is no way of connecting to gtalk with the new gabble releases (>= 0.9.18)?

Is this a correct observation Simon?

Ok, I just read your message in the blocker bug, so this is a new bug. Sorry for the annoyance..
Comment 3 Simon McVittie 2010-09-16 05:22:20 UTC
Does this go away if you upgrade telepathy-mission-control to version 5.5.0 or later, or Empathy to 2.31.92 or later?

(I recommend Mission Control 5.6 when we release it, or the highest possible 5.5.x version until then; similarly, Empathy 2.32 when available, or the highest possible 2.31.x until then.)
Comment 4 Simon McVittie 2010-09-16 05:30:05 UTC
Thinking about it further, the version of Empathy isn't as important, but you must have Mission Control 5.5 to avoid the connection "getting stuck" shortly before CONNECTED state.

Just tried with 5.5.0 and it made no difference. Exact same debug as well.

With emapthy, I do not have the dev-version packages but if you think it is important, I can give it a shot?

Correction: 5.5.0 just worked. The background process was not killed with empathy quitting so the prev comment was in fact with 5.4 perhaps.

I just got connected to gtalk.
Comment 7 Simon McVittie 2010-09-16 05:52:59 UTC
Excellent. I can consider this to be a packaging bug, then: recent Gabble should have a Breaks/Conflicts relationship with older MC versions (it's not a dependency, as such, because Gabble doesn't strictly *need* MC, but some packaging systems might have to represent it as a dependency).

I'll make that clearer in the NEWS file for 0.10.0.
