Same symptoms for me today with Empathy ver 2.30.1. It seems to happen randomly. I restarted empathy several times and at one point (a few hours later) it opened with all contacts listed.
Some details: 1) When somebody was IMing me I was getting the message. 2) Trying to send an IM by hitting ctrl-N also didn't work. 3) A funny thing for which I'm not 100% sure: I was executing empathy from the terminal (to check for possible messages) and if I remember correctly those times that it was opening with a clean list I was getting a prompt immediately after issuing the command (the empathy window was left open). Now that it opens with my contacts shown I execute it and it doesn't return (as is normal for most programs when run from the terminal). 4) if it happens again I will check the debug log (didn't know about it) -- main window empty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/487468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
