I did a "apt-get source empathy" in Karmic to quickly check this out.
In file empathy-status-icon.c, a pixbuf is loaded with function "empathy_misc_get_pixbuf_for_notification", which can return a NULL. If the pixbuf is NULL, then the notification bubble never receives an icon. So I went hunting for this "empathy_misc_get_pixbuf_for_notification" function in empathy-misc.c. It returns the avatar pixpuf if it exists, or an icon with an icon_name given as a parameter. Okay, back to empathy-status-icon.c to see from where icon_name is coming from. It comes from "priv->event->icon_name'... but I don't see this "priv->event->icon_name" being set anywhere, I guess that's where the problem is. -- Notifications should show generic user icon if user does not have an avatar https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/535596 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
