Version: 0.8.922 (CVS >= 20040717) (using KDE 3.2.92 (3.3 beta2), Gentoo) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.3 20040412 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.3-r6, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.7-gentoo-r10 To see what I mean, join a crowded channel like #gentoo-dev on freenode. The first thing you'll see are oodles of "Foo is now away" or "Foo os now Op". Those are actually no status changes as the initial status is queried at that moment.
Yes. Status changes should be disabled for the first few seconds after a user has joined the KMM. This code, however, needs to go into libkopete. There is no way for the IRC plugin to cause Kopete to not print these status changes.
I have a proposal which I'm calling 'onlineStatusFor' which I think would solve this, by making the contacts start with the right status, so no status change ever occurs. To me this makes sense, since no status change actually does occur. Another change which would help here would be for libkopete to not notify on changes from Unknown to non-Unknown.
Thank you for the bug report. As this report hasn't seen any changes in 5 years or more, we ask if you can please confirm that the issue still persists. If this bug is no longer persisting or relevant please change the status to resolved.
