Title: "Facebook Requires Authorization" when already authorized Status in Jabber/XMPP connection manager: Fix Released Status in “telepathy-gabble” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “telepathy-gabble” source package in Precise: Triaged Status in “telepathy-gabble” source package in Quantal: Triaged Status in “telepathy-gabble” source package in Raring: Triaged Status in “telepathy-gabble” source package in Saucy: Confirmed Status in “telepathy-gabble” package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: I am running fully updated 13.04 64-bit. I simply cannot get empathy/UOA to connect to facebook. When I add the account in UOA everything seems to go well, facebook login page loads, it logs in successfully, facebook recognizes the session as "safari on linux"; but upon completing the setup in UOA empathy refuses to connect to it and keeps telling me it requires authorization. I've Tried the following: Removing the account from UOA Ending all active sessions on facebook and deleting the ubuntu app rebooting adding account in UOA, and allowing the ubuntu app to manage my messages etc... Didn't help at all. pidgin connects fine on the same computer. Sometimes it does let me add it and it works for a while, but eventually this issue happens again and leaves me totally unable to successfully add a facebook account for quite some time, until it randomly decides it wants to work again. Empathy/UOA in 13.04 has been unreliable to the point of ridiculousness, the application is basically unusable and can't handle the one basic task of an instant messaging program, which is connecting to my accounts reliably.
