@Omer:

Bug 530195 is a long and confusing one :) with many different symptoms
and possible root causes/code bugs/solutions. For example:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gwibber/+bug/530195/comments/51
(changing DNS didn't work); Comments 54 and 57 (CouchDB not running);
Comment 58 (unknown - gwibber-service not running?); Comments 59, 62, 63
(unknown); Comment 69 (auth errors hidden); Comment 80 (locale setting
problem)...

Although some of the 'Solved, working' comments in bug 530195 *are*
related to DNS, plenty of others are not. In contrast, in this bug
itself, by comment 7 we have already established that this error in log
output: "error: (6, 'name lookup timed out')" means it is a DNS failure
causing this particular problem. I think that this bug is a nice, short,
straight-line test for whether Gwibber Twitter problems are due to DNS
failures; if people reading this bug fail to find the given error
message in their debug output, then they would, of course, search the
many other Gwibber bugs, for symptoms matching the ones they see.
Therefore, I've just changed this bug's title to include the defining
error message from the log; hopefully people can find this bug, and get
a potential solution, quickly.

It's up to you, Omer, if you want to mark this as a duplicate of the
other bug; I don't think it's a good idea because as cited above, there
are too many suggestions and different problems in the other bug, while
this one, so far, nails down exactly one problem.

Thanks,
Ed.
