Public bug reported:
Nothing is really broken here, but the system think so. It asks the user
to abort the generating process because of inactivity before finished.
The problem is lack of information that this could take a couple of
minutes, and lack of some kind of progress indicator maybe.
I installed pidgin and pidgin-otr and then tried to generate fingerprint from
the menu:
==> Tools > Plugins and check "Off-the-record Messaging", then click on
"Config" (at the bottom) and then on the "Generate" button to generate a
fingerprint.
After this an empty box appeared (no progress indicator) saying that it
was generating fingerprint. This took about 2 minutes and I 4 times was
asked by the system to abort either the genarating or some other part of
pidgin, but I clicked "continue" or similar until it told me that
generating was finished - lucky me.
