Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gaim
I am unable to connect to any jabber client (including jabber.org with strange and long usernames). I have attempted to connect to google talk without success. Seems to be related to DNS... might not actually be a problem with gaim; gaim can connect to other clients (AIM is working properly for me). I don't know if some other package I have installed in addition to base system is the problem. I have not added anything like dnsmasq or anything that should interact with DNS at that level. Here is gaim -d output from a session where I logged on, added my google talk account (googlemail.com as server per directions at http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/answer.py?answer=24073), tried to log on a couple more times, then closed the gaim windows and finally closed gaim completely.
