[Desktop-packages] [Bug 303862] Re: Pidgin freezes when generating new OTR private key
Ok. I just tried the suggestion from Paul G in Post #5. When the Dialog opens which says that the OTR Key for the account is created I continued using my computer. I had ran some for-loops in a terminal, did some research in the web and some typing in an editor. I did this in order to gather entropy for /dev/random. After 1-2 minutes the key was created successfully. I agree with Paul that there should be a hint for the user what to do, to get the key generated.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 303862] Re: Pidgin freezes when generating new OTR private key
I also experienced the bug (13.10, Pidgin 2.10.7 (libpurple 2.10.7), pidgin-otr 4.0.0-1). After doing some research I think I can conclude that the reason must be that Pidgin tries to get the initialization randomness from /dev/random and stalls until /dev/random delivers sufficient data. For me pidgin unfreezes after typing random data into an arbitrary text field for a few minutes to produce entropy for /dev/random. It would be adviseable to give a hint to the user as to what pidgin is waiting for, and how he can speed up the process (like using mouse/keyboard/whatever devices feed entropy to /dev/random). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pidgin in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303862 Title: Pidgin freezes when generating new OTR private key Status in Off-the-Record Messaging plugin for pidgin: New Status in “pidgin” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “pidgin-otr” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: pidgin Package: pidgin-otr (Intrepid) 3.2.0-1 Version of Ubuntu: Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid) Systems used: AMD XP 3200+, 1 GB DDR, 160 GB HDD running Ubuntu 8.10 HP dv9500t laptop, 2.0 Ghz Core 2 Duo, 2 GB DDR, 160 GB HDD running of Ubuntu 8.10 LiveCD When I enable the pidgin-otr plugin and attempt to generate a new private key, Pidgin pops up a dialog box telling me that a new private key is being generated.
