I've been requesting that this gets fixed for some time now. See: http://lists.cypherpunks.ca/pipermail/otr-users/2010-December/001889.html http://lists.cypherpunks.ca/pipermail/otr-users/2010-December/001891.html http://lists.cypherpunks.ca/pipermail/otr-dev/2011-August/001210.html
Len White wrote a patch to fix the problem, but his compiled binaries seem to crash on my laptop for some reason. Given that it's already been reported on this ML and Debian's bug list, it would be nice to get an official patch out the door. -- Brendan Byrd <[email protected]> System Integration Analyst (NOC Web Developer) -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Howard Chu Sent: Monday, December 19, 2011 7:25 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [OTR-dev] [OTR-users] [bug] Pidgin does not notify of new unencrypted messages while encrypting http://lists.cypherpunks.ca/pipermail/otr-users/2011-June/001919.html Was browsing the list archives and stumbled over this. I see that in cvs/git the libotr API has changed quite a bit already, pushing the text of these messages out of the library and making it the plugin's responsibility to handle them. Seems like that's a good idea. I noticed that the git master for pidgin-otr has been adapted to this already, and it also has an additional "force_create" option added to the otrg_dialog_display_otr_message() function. It seems to me that's a bit wasteful and this should be a generic "flags" argument instead, with one value reserved for force_create, and another value to e.g. declare that the message should be treated as a PURPLE_MESSAGE_RECV instead of the default of PURPLE_MESSAGE_SYSTEM. That would allow the plugin to write the offending message as a normal message, and give the notification that the bug filers' are looking for. -- -- Howard Chu CTO, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/ _______________________________________________ OTR-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cypherpunks.ca/mailman/listinfo/otr-dev _______________________________________________ OTR-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cypherpunks.ca/mailman/listinfo/otr-dev
