A few weeks ago I encountered a fatal error, which is still with me.
I tried to do what you asked but could not get through - the confirmation
for subscribing to the list also did not work, so I did not know how to
proceed.
Much to my surprise I started receiving mails from you two days ago:-o
So what happened - then and now (the crash re-occurred for the same reason
with the identical mask, which is what is quoted above):
On my licq icon it says "4 messages" (4 Nachrichten). The crash occurs when
I double-click on this message, in order to raise the messages.Not on the
first attempt. Then a message will pop up (I use the email mode) - when I
click on "close" it does close but the number of messages listed has not
been reduced. On second try it will crash.
Let me add, though, that licq may be running in an unstable environment.
(On ubuntu jaunty) I run it by using "sux [different user]". On calling up
licq I always get on my terminal the message:
*******
n...@xubuntu:~$ licq
Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the
authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based
authentication failed
********
Licq has worked ok, however, except for these recent "happenings".
The installed package is: licq 1.3.6-0ubuntu1

Hi,
unfortunately, the web site is a bit unstable and has been down recently.
I would recommend you to create a ticket for this now that the site is back
up.
Since it says in the mask that I can use this list for the purpose, I'll
just go on here.
However, I can give you the first reply for the ticket right here so you can
include those answers as well:
My answers:
* Did the crash happen on startup (offline or old messages) or with messages
received while Licq was running?
It started while I was online. The other side kept sending messages while
I was still busy doing waht was said in the previous message - so they
accumulated.
* Does the crash happen just once or will Licq crash again every time you
restart it and try to read the messages again?
It will do it after every re-start.
* Were there anything special in those messages that caused the crash? i.e.
special non-english characters, URLs, etc...?
I do not think there was.
* Does it still crash if use use chat mode?
No. It shows the messages but does not
* Can you try Licq 1.3.7 instead and check if problem persist in that
version?
No - this is the latest licq version ubuntu provides as a package. I have
not yet graaduated to using programs outside of those packages:-)
Regarding the "Session management error", I'm pretty sure that's not from
Licq but from something else in your environment (probably X window system).
Yes - I realize that. I thought that perhaps this flaw in the environment
caused by my using it al a different user might in turn cause licq to be
more unstable.

Luise

One thought to all who, free from doubt,
So definitely know what's true:
