On a hunch, disabled identi.ca support. (It'll have to happen anyway with the pump.io conversion.) That made the exception go away, but didn't fix the problem with updates stopping after a time.
Looking at the most recent debug log, I stopped friends-app (via the close button), and killed the dispatcher. Once I killed the dispatcher, the service (still running) seemed to wake up, and when I ran the app again and clicked the update button, I got the past hour's worth of updates. So, perhaps it's a deadlock of some kind holding the dispatcher open and preventing new updates. Or something. This friends.log covers all this activity. After doing the above, I closed friends-app and killed all the friends-foo processes to ensure I had a clean log. ** Attachment added: "friends.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/friends/+bug/1171745/+attachment/3693858/+files/friends.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1171745 Title: Timeline doesn't refresh To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/friends/+bug/1171745/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
