Happy-Dude Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 New version:Version 2.5.3 (12/20/2008)View all closed tickets for this release. * libpurple o The Buddy State Notification plugin no longer prints duplicate notifications when the same buddy is in multiple groups.

(Paul Aurich) o Fix a crash when accessing the roomlist for an account that's not connected. (Paul Aurich) o Fix a crash in purple_accounts_delete that happens when this function is called before the buddy list is initialized. (Florian Quèze) o Fix use of av_len in perl bindings to fix some off-by-one bugs. (Paul Aurich) o On ICQ, advertise the ICQ 6 typing capability. This should fix the reports of typing notifications not working with third-party clients. (Jaromír Karmazín) o Many QQ fixes and improvements, including the ability to connect using QQ2008 protocol and sending/receiving of long messages. The recommended version to use is still QQ2005. o Fix a crash with DNS SRV lookups. (Florian Quèze) o Fix a crash caused by authorization requests.

(Adam Strzelecki) o Gadu-Gadu now does proper charset translations where needed. (Adam Strzelecki) * MSN o Fix an error with offline messages by shipping the new "Microsoft Secure Server Authority" and the "Microsoft Internet Authority" certificates. These are now always installed even when using --with-system-ssl-certs because most systems don't ship those intermediate certificates. o The Games and Office media can now be set and displayed (in addition to the previous Music media). The Media status text now shows the album, if possible. o Messages sent from a mobile device while you were offline are now correctly received. o Server transfers after you've been connected for a long time should now be handled correctly. o Many improvements to handling of "federated" buddies, such as those on the Yahoo network. o Several known crashes have been resolved. o Many other fixes and code cleanup. * MySpace o Respect your privacy settings set using the official MySpace client. o Add support for blocking buddies. o Fix a bug where buddies didn't appear in their correct groups the first time you sign into your account. o Properly disconnect and sign out of the service when logging off. o Support for foreground and background font colors in outgoing IMs. o Support for background font colors in incoming IMs. o Many other fixes and code cleanup. * Sametime o Fix insanely long idle times for Sametime 7.5 buddies by assuming 0 idle time if the idle timestamp is in the future. (Laurent Montaron) o Fix a crash that can occur on login. (Raiko Nitzsche) * SIMPLE o Fix a crash when a malformed message is received. o Don't allow connecting accounts if no server name has been specified. (Florian Quèze) * XMPP o Fix the namespace URL we look for in PEP reply stanzas to match the URL used in the 'get' requests (Paul Aurich) o Resources can be set to the local machine's hostname by using __HOSTNAME__ as the resource string. (Jonathan Sailor) o Resources can now be left blank, causing the server to generate a resource for us where supported.

(Michael Terry) o Fix a 10 second delay waiting on tzc if it is not installed or the configured command is invalid. (Michael Terry) * Pidgin o On GTK+ 2.14 and higher, we're using the gtk-tooltip-delay setting instead of our own (hidden) tooltip_delay pref. If you had previously changed that pref, add a line like this to ~/.purple/gtkrc-2.0 (where 500 is the timeout (in ms) you want): gtk-tooltip-timeout = 500 To completely disable tooltips (e.g. if you had an old tooltip_delay of zero), add this to ~/.purple/gtkrc-2.0: gtk-enable-tooltips = 0 o Moved the release notification dialog to a mini-dialog in the buddylist. (Casey Ho) o Fix a crash when closing an authorization minidialog with the X then immediately going offline.
