Package: choqok Version: 0.9.81-2 Severity: normal After twitter's authentication system changes on August 31st [1], Choqok's old existing accounts won't be able to authenticate due to the server refusing requests with HTTP 500 replies.
When going to Settings menu -> Configure Choqok -> Accounts to edit my current account (set up around July of this year), in the Edit account view under OAuth Authentication I clicked on "Authenticate with Twitter service" (the Authenticated indicator being visible on green in spite of the aforementioned), so the app starts a web browser with an API access confirmation page from the Twitter service, which then displays a PIN to use with the app. However, Choqok doesn't display a dialog box to set the PIN unless I delete the old account and recreate it, and go through the authentication setup again. This is a minor annoyance, but not all users might figure out this work around. After recreating my account settings, Choqok works perfectly fine. I haven't tried newer versions from upstream to check if this is still a problem and whether a fix could be backported to squeeze, yet. I still have backups of my old choqokrc file if it's necessary for further testing.
