#8892: Pidgin crashes when trying to merge a non-existing buddy into a metacontact
--------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
Reporter: chemistrydioxide | Owner: khc
Type: defect | Status: new
Component: MSN | Version: 2.5.5
Keywords: metacontacts non-existing user |
--------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
What I tried to do was adding a MSN user. Another account of the same
person was already on my list, and I wanted to merge both to one
metacontact. Unfortunately, the MSN address that I had was wrong. So two
dialogs appeared:
1. Adding buddy failed: This user does not exist
2. You have two buddies with the same name. Do you want to merge them?
I clicked OK for the first one and Yes for the second and Pidgin crashed,
probably because it's not possible to merge two buddies if one of them
doesn't exist.
I think that Pidgin should
1) not crash when merging several buddies to a metacontact fails
2) not suggest merging two buddies when one of them couldn't be created
