[Bug 1175537] Re: Stuck notifications (unable to clear them)
I still get this issue with pidgin-libnotify 0.14-9ubuntu2~raring~ppa3 from ppa:jconti/gnome3 When I click on the chat window upon receiving a message, the blue mail indicator does go away, but the list of names is still there. The Clear menu item is also grayed out.

Thanks again for testing. In my haste, I forgot to update the other location where purple_conversation_get_name() was used, when deleting the conversation. I pushed one last change out to ppa:jconti/gnome3, if you wouldn't mind checking that closing a conversation window removes the associated menu item in the Messaging Menu that would be great (may also want to check first that it is broken with the current version). ** Patch added: pidgin-libnotify_use-buddy-name-v3.debdiff https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin-libnotify/+bug/1175537/+attachment/3684946/+files/pidgin-libnotify_use-buddy-name-v3.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1175537 Title: Stuck notifications (unable to clear them) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin-libnotify/+bug/1175537/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

As far as I can say after short testing - when I receive more than 1 message from any contact, all notifications are working now (for all contacts).

[Bug 1175537] Re: Stuck notifications (unable to clear them)
Great, I've installed deb file and it seems (partially) OK - now I can see only one item for each conversation. It was a real pain for me :). But there are four problems now: 1) Only notifications for the second message from the same contact are displayed incl. notification bubble (I have to look at the workspace with Pidgin to see that someone new sent me a message). This is related to problem #2. 2) Envelope in Unity never turns blue. No matter how many new messages I've received, it's still black. But when I click it, I can see list of new conversations (conversations with unread messages). 3) In menu there is a Clear item, but now it's permanently inactive (grey). 4) When I enter the conversation menu item in Unity is still active (until I click on it). This behavior is the same for all accounts/protocols I'm using (GTalk and XMPP). I'm not sure which of these problems were caused by this fix, because previously this notifications menu was so long I can scroll in it - every message from monitoring created new item. P.S.

@Jason: thanks for your work I can confirm that the first message received doesn't trigger a notification, that was happening before that update though. Testing the patch the envelop still turns blue as it should, I was not able to confirm the bug so I can't really confirm the fix but at least it seems to have no regression compared to the archive version...

[Bug 1175537] Re: Stuck notifications (unable to clear them)
Thanks for testing. That buddy id was exactly what I was hoping to see, so at least that part seems to be fixed. Problem 1, as Sebastien mentioned, was unfortunately always there. I'm not sure how to fix it. On my system at least, sometimes I will get the first notification, sometimes not. I think it could be related to the sign-on flood control code. Problems 3 and 4 are actually by design. I think the Clear button's name is a bit misleading. It doesn't actually remove any of the menu items. It only clears the attention (the envelope changing color). Several separate menu items could all have attention set, and you would need to clear them all separately, so the button is just there to make it easy to remove them all at once. A menu item only disappears when you click on it, or when you close the conversation that is associated with it. Problem 2 is interesting. For IM messages, the unseen-count of a conversation is used to determine if attention should be set. There could be two reasons why this isn't working. It could be that pidgin thinks you have the conversation focused for some reason. You said that you had it open on a separate workspace, so maybe it can't tell the difference. You could test this by minimizing the conversation and then sending the messages. The other option is that for some reason purple_conversation_get_name() is not matching purple_buddy_get_name(). You said that it was working before, so that would point to purple_conversation_get_name() being the same as sender (so the buddy name with all the random bits at the end). If this is the case (we'd need to add some debugging messages to test), that would point to a bug in pidgin for that protocol, since the API reference says it returns The conversation's name. If the conversation is an IM with a PurpleBuddy, then it's the name of the PurpleBuddy. Actually looking at the jabber protocol code, in message.c they use purple_conversation_set_name() and describe it as: * We received a message from a specific resource, so * we probably want a reply to go to this specific * resource (i.e. bind/lock the conversation to this * resource). * * This works because purple_conv_im_send gets the name * from purple_conversation_get_name() So it seems it might be a quirk of the jabber code. Unless I could somehow get a buddy back out of a conversation, then I'm not sure how to fix this. Sebastien, it's hard to say. It's probably better that the envelope doesn't change color when it should, versus flooding the Messaging Menu with duplicate entries. I'm not sure how fixable this is without adding some custom parsing for conversations with the jabber protocol. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1175537 Title: Stuck notifications (unable to clear them) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin-libnotify/+bug/1175537/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

After a few minutes thought, I realized if purple_conversation_get_name() == sender, and I can get the buddy with account and sender, then I should be able to do the same with the conversation name.

[Bug 1175537] Re: Stuck notifications (unable to clear them)
There is an attempt in pidgin-libnotify to generate unique strings for each buddy, where each string is the id of a menu item in the Messaging Menu. If you are getting repeat entries, then for some reason it is generating two different strings for the same buddy. If someone experiencing this bug could run: pidgin -d; when starting pidgin, and try to reproduce the bug. I'd be most interested in the results with lines like: SOURCE activated '%s' where %s is the buddy id. These would occur after clicking the menu item in the Messaging Menu for the buddy. It would be interesting to see how these differ for two different menu items for the same buddy. Ideally I'd just like to see the entire log, but since that could reveal buddy ids, I'd be fine with someone going through and adding a comment with several examples of how the same buddy has two different ids (with names changed to protect the innocent).

[Bug 1175537] Re: Stuck notifications (unable to clear them)
Thanks for the information, the random characters at the end of the buddy name seem to be what's hurting us here. It seems that sender may contain too much information, looks like where the message originated from. Originally it was using purple_buddy_get_name() instead of sender, but for all the protocols I tested, these were the same, so went with sender instead. Attaching a debdiff with the minor change of using purple_buddy_get_name() if possible, and if not falling back to sender. But since I can't reproduce this easily, I don't know whether this will fix your issue or not (it works equivalently on the protocols I'm using). For ease of testing, I pushed the change to ppa:jconti/gnome3 , it should build in a few hours. You don't necessarily have to add the ppa to test it, just downloading the deb and installing will work (or rebuild with the attached debdiff if you prefer). If it doesn't fix the issue, I would be interested in seeing what the new buddy ids look like. ** Patch added: pidgin-libnotify_use-buddy-name.debdiff https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin-libnotify/+bug/1175537/+attachment/3682414/+files/pidgin-libnotify_use-buddy-name.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1175537 Title: Stuck notifications (unable to clear them) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin-libnotify/+bug/1175537/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
