[Bug 296867]
Worth mentioning that Xavier Claessens's never implemented patch is now likely vulnerable anyway... https://www.helpnetsecurity.com/2016/03/10/critical-bug-libotr-open-users-chatsecure-adium-pidgin-compromise/ Upstream libotr has already addressed the vulnerability, so any attempts at this should be sure to implement the latest version without the memory bug. @Andre Klapper: All I asked for was a quick tutorial on how to build it. However, as the years have continued to go by, I am now uninterested and have stopped using most GNOME telecommunication products completely due to lack of documentation and security. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296867 Title: empathy needs to support OTR encryption To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/empathy/+bug/296867/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

@Xavier: Can't you provide us, at very least, a small tutorial showing how to compile this with the latest empathy build? Because it doesn't work. If not - I donated years ago for this to be implemented, so I'll want my money back. :P -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296867 Title: empathy needs to support OTR encryption To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/empathy/+bug/296867/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

In regards to my previous comment. I discovered enable-otr is in /src/connection.c, once you get the right branch... git clone git://people.freedesktop.org/~smcv/telepathy-gabble git checkout untested-otr I also tried setting the default "FALSE" option to "TRUE". Still OTR doesn't work for me, perhaps empathy also needs to be patched (instead of just gabble). However Xaivers empathy branch no longer runs properly on my system due to changes in gtk, so I am unable to test the older version. So, that's as far as I made it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296867 Title: empathy needs to support OTR encryption To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/empathy/+bug/296867/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

So after I ran the make install I started up empathy, but was unable to use "/otr start". It claims command is not found. I then read this: > You need to set "enable-otr=true" in your CM parameters, otherwise OTR is > disabled No idea what a CM parameter is or where to set it, so I ran grep on all the files. Nothing says "enable-otr". Can someone clarify where to put that line? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296867 Title: empathy needs to support OTR encryption To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/empathy/+bug/296867/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Just so everyone knows, this has been completed quite some time ago via a bounty developer on FreedomSponsors.
