I haven't had time to look at it yet. It would have been easier if FC6 would have had pidgin as an update, since I don't want to install an FC7 beta yet. I do know that building gaim-otr on the Fedora Extra systems failed, probably because it is missing header files in a "mock" build.

Thanks it works here. I never used otr-gaim plugin before so I have a couple of questions: * In the main pidgin plugin windows I can't configure the otr-plugin (the button is disabled), but in the latest official release that I'm using on gaim-beta6 it works. * I think you have already applied the official patches, right?

The new features (like fragmentation and i18n) will be coming soon, but now they themselves need to be ported to pidgin. - Ian From icebrkr at cyberdyne.org Tue May 8 17:05:40 2007 From: icebrkr at cyberdyne.org (iCE Breaker) Date: Tue, 8 May 2007 17:05:40 -0400 Subject: [OTR-users] Pidgin OTR Configuration button issue fixed. . .

But those echoes certainly aren't being passed though the OTR plugin (nor should the be, really), since the plugin would have replaced the "?OTR:AAID..." with an OTR Error. So I don't see how OTR could repress the bounced messages, since gaim never passes them to it. - Ian From robey at lag.net Sat May 19 19:00:40 2007 From: robey at lag.net (Robey Pointer) Date: Sat, 19 May 2007 16:00:40 -0700 Subject: [OTR-users] python OTR library Message-ID: <64E67BF4-361A-41C1-B2BA-384283CC449E@lag.net> A while ago, I wrote an OTR library in python (using pycrypto) for use in a bot at work.

I have not seen this issue before. I've seen the double button (hard to avoid due to gaim's design of grouping buddies), but I've never it crash. Can you add me twice so we can crash my gaim/pidgin?

Yeah, that's a known bug that we haven't had a chance to squish yet. It's related to the misfeature of pidgin that it groups conversations from different buddies into the same window. It's completely unclear to me what should happen in the case that one of these buddies is, say, OTR Private, and one is in the clear. When you receive a message in that window, how do you know if it was sent securely? That being said, we can try to squish the crash bug before we figure out what the correct behaviour should be.
