------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
Reporter: george | Owner: sulabh.dev
Type: defect | Status: new
Component: Yahoo!/Yahoo! JAPAN | Version: 2.10.3
Keywords: login invisible status |
------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
Pidgin: 2.10.3 and 2.7
Platform: Ubuntu 11.04
Protocol: Yahoo
I use pidgin with an yahoo account and the majority of my buddies are
using Yahoo Messenger.
----
Steps:
1. In preferences I check "Use status from last exit" or
set "Status to apply at startup" = Invisible
2. I set pidgin to auto connect at startup
3. I go invisible and close pidgin -> last status = invisible
4. On another computer using '''Yahoo Messenger''' one of my buddies is
watching his contacts list
5. I start Pidgin which auto connects or simply connect
6. What happens:
My buddy receives a notification that "my_nickname is now offline"
although
I never appeared online/available in his list before this.
(the buddies using Pidgin are not notified)
7. What should happen:
I connect invisible without notifying anyone about that
----
I noticed this bug with Pidgin 2.7 too(that's why i upgraded my version)
and it seems no one filled a ticket for exact this specific situation.
