Description Juan Luis Baptiste 2011-11-09 03:50:32 CET
Description of problem:

Since the end of last week kopete is unable to connect to MSN. The problem lies on libmsn and there's a patch available which I have already tested and it works. 

This report is more for QA to test the libmsn package I'm going to send to updates_testing for mga1 :)


Relevant upstream bug report:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=285803


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

libmsn 4.1 beta1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure a WLM account on kopete
2. Try to connect using that account
3. See how it stays on "connecting" and a connection error message when kopete os closed.

Testing complete on i586 for the srpm
kdenetwork4-4.6.5-0.mga1.src.rpm

Started kopete, added my hotmail account, had no trouble connecting, or
immediately getting some russian spam. :-)

Just to clarify, the package with the bug that was patched was libmsn, not kdenetwork, so I suppose you also installed that one from updates_testing: libmsn0.3-4.1.5.1.

Thanks for catching that.
grep libmsn0.3 /var/log/syslog
Nov  9 03:29:10 hodgins MageiaUpdate[28408]: [RPM] libmsn0.3-4.1-5.1.mga1.i586 installed

So the srpm involved is libmsn-4.1-5.1.mga1.src.rpm

Just post here, a brief summary of what has been changed, and why.
Comment 10 Juan Luis Baptiste 2011-11-10 03:24:58 CET
Ok here it goes:


An error has been found in libmsn library used by Kopete Instant Messaging Application, in the way SOAP redirects where handled which was preventing  Windows Live Messenger users from logging into their  accounts.

The updated package have been patched to correct this issue.
Comment 11 Dave Hodgins 2011-11-11 03:16:41 CET
We still need an x86-64 test for kopete/libmsn.
Comment 12 Juan Luis Baptiste 2011-11-11 03:20:56 CET
I tested  on x86_64  if  it's worth for you.
Comment 13 Dave Hodgins 2011-11-11 03:56:50 CET
Yes.  I'll go ahead and validate the update.

Can someone from the sysadmin team push the srpm
libmsn-4.1-5.1.mga1.src.rpm
from Core Updates Testing to Core Updates

Advisory: An error has been found in the libmsn library used by the Kopete
Instant Messaging Application, in the way SOAP redirects were handled
which was preventing Windows Live Messenger users from logging into their
accounts. The updated package has been patched to correct this issue.
