I would never expect Ubuntu's bulit-in IM program to log by default, let alone force the logging entirely! I'm switching back to pidgin for now.

+1 I would prefer to be able to do this as well. I would like to know, is this actually a function of the fact to delete the files manually you have to sudo but the program doesnt run as root or have those privileges. So when you click "clear" in the previous conversations window it vanishes, but doesn't delete the file because the program doesn't have the right privileges? See, I notice that you do it the first time and it vanishes, but go into a chat window, or go back into the same previous chat window and they are there again. I am not able to delete them unless I sudo in terminal manually? Is there a way to run a terminal command after a program shuts down, could this be done as a "patch" for the moment?

[Bug 411898] Re: Add preference to turn off conversation logging
It has been a year and a half since the upstream bug was reported in Gnome's Bugzilla and it seems unlikely to be fixed anytime soon. Is it possible to have this fixed in the Ubuntu only? Waiting for the upstream fix seems unreasonable in a way. It appears that people do want to disable logging and it the lack of this feature is a major turn-off for some of them, myself included. -- Add preference to turn off conversation logging https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

pidgin was/is awesome, adding video chat functionality to pidgin was a much better way than inventing your own stupid (video) chat client like empathy.. on top of that a fundemental need like turning off chat logging is missing on empathy. this is just wrong.. adding CLI shit to gnome, and then missing privacy in empathy.. this makes 2 for gnome, and i need a 3rd to just stop using gnome! i know gnome devs are not dying to make me use gnome, but i am dying when i use it.. gnome is not going good... -- Add preference to turn off conversation logging https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Any movement on this? Like exactly what would be the best way to fix it.. use Steve's patch? Seriously this is a major problem..

I've sent a patch for this upstream, and I'm attaching a debdiff here. I've applied the patch to Empathy_2.28.1.1-0ubuntu1 and placed the resulting packages in my PPA. You may get them from https://launchpad.net/~smcgrath23/+archive/smcgrath These packages offer a checkbox in the preferences dialog to enable/disable conversation logging, as well as a GConf key; /apps/empathy/conversation/enable_logging.
