In last times I received some offline messages; if I click to see them,
I get an error (the same described here
http://www.amsn-project.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=23974)
After some very difficult checks ;) I found that the problem stays in
the string passed to base64::decode: it's not a valid Base64 string!
You can check with a simple perl command (so we can exclude a bug in
the tcl base64 implementation):
perl -MMIME::Base64 -e'print(MIME::Base64::decode("=wqDCoFVyaWVs?= ") . "\n")'
doesn't output anything, while
perl -MMIME::Base64 -e'print(MIME::Base64::decode("wqDCoFVyaWVs?= ") . "\n")'
yes.
The problem seems to lie in the first "=": the only place where that
character is allowed is the string end, as padding (and there could be
at most two of them).
Deleting that "=" the string is valid. The patch I attach works for me.
