Would be cool if kopete would support the new chat function in facebook. Since other messengers are starting to support it, it should be possibile. See at: http://www.allfacebook.com/2008/05/adium-to-support-facebook-chat/ 600623 1 finex 2008-05-12 13:38:06 +0000 Facebook is a growing reality. Supporting it should be interesting! 601121 2 m.wege 2008-05-14 07:08:22 +0000 This news sounds like I can close my wish again: http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/allfacebook/~3/289810669/ Unfortunately the source is not linked. But I guess it is ok. So I close the wish and reopen it just in case this news turns out to be not true. 601122 3 m.wege 2008-05-14 07:09:24 +0000 Closing wish, Facebook announced to support Jabber/XMPP. 601140 4 finex 2008-05-14 09:53:54 +0000 Wonderful! 635467 5 rap 2008-08-08 09:13:27 +0000 Facebook will not add Jabber support until they launch their own client. Bug should not be marked as resolved. Pidgin is supporting Facebook. 649254 6 pino 2008-09-27 21:40:53 +0000 Wish still valid, reopening. 649256 7 pino 2008-09-27 21:41:17 +0000 *** Bug 171757 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 661648 8 m.wege 2008-11-08 00:50:52 +0000 Since it doesn't look like facebook is opening up directly, it would be really great if FB-chat could be supported like in other messengers. 669640 9 ict 2008-11-23 15:48:05 +0000 I'm with Pidgin now until kopete gets Facebook chat support. A lot of people are using facebook chat as their main IM now - mainly because it tends to attract a wider cross section of the populus - who wouldn't otherwise use IM. Hope Kopete can catch up soon! Is anyone working on a fb plugin? Anyone want support? 676234 10 risto 2008-12-05 23:13:09 +0000 I second the wish, would be nice not to have to have a FB window open all the time because of the chat.. 712423 11 dhaval 2009-02-06 00:27:15 +0000 Is anyone working on this? I am certainly looking forward to the day when Kopete supports Facebook IM. 718462 12 florian_staudacher 2009-02-17 23:01:04 +0000 It would be great to have the FB chat in an app rather than in a browser window! Please consider it ... 718511 13 facorread 2009-02-17 23:46:00 +0000 Is there any way to help developing the plugin? 734109 14 m.wege 2009-03-24 01:46:01 +0000 Is this something which can only be done by an Kopete internal or would it be possible by someone who want to get into it? If it possible for externals, it would be cool if there would be a kind of profile (what needs to be done, what qualifications are needed). Then it could be announced on the commit-diggest and/or the dot. May be there is someone up for the fame? 734686 15 steffen 2009-03-25 16:34:52 +0000 @14: I'm not a KDE/Kopete dev but I don't see any reason why an external couldn't make this. 735040 16 tejasdinkar 2009-03-26 08:11:54 +0000 I am submitting this as my proposal for Google Summer of Code 735065 17 m.wege 2009-03-26 09:49:22 +0000 This sounds very cool. I hope you succeed :-) May be, I do not know how different the work for this would be, you could design it in way that it is easy to pick the IM-functionality of other social networks. There is MyVZ/StudiVZ/SchulerVZ (a facebook clone in Germany, Austria and Switzerland with 10 million users) and I heard Myspace (I don't use that) which has also messaging. 740714 18 opensourcecat 2009-04-08 19:45:31 +0000 this would be absolutely awesome! 750999 19 smithjd15 2009-05-02 04:10:12 +0000 Facebook Activity Stream looks like it could be parsed for Facebook wall posts / chat as a plugin for Kopete. 760703 20 duncan 2009-05-20 10:50:21 +0000 I take this enhancement, as I already got the first usable version: see: http://duncan.mac-vicar.com/blog/archives/541 760832 21 opensourcecat 2009-05-20 14:23:05 +0000 (In reply to comment #20) > I take this enhancement, as I already got the first usable version: > > see: http://duncan.mac-vicar.com/blog/archives/541 I would really like to help you testing this. 802866 22 dhaval 2009-08-02 18:38:28 +0000 Is there a package available for Kubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty)?

QJson links against QtCore, but is missing to setup the library path *?* Could be a bug in QJson's pkgconfig, or you destroy the already setup path somehow, I am not sure about that. 803629 25 heri+kde 2009-08-03 11:58:35 +0000 First feedback: - In the setup dialogue you ask for a password, but Kopete itself asks for the password again just after clicking OK. - There is no visible feedback whether the connection was successfull or not, or whether we are connected at all. (gray facebook icon, or similar) - Afterwards nothing happens. No new buddies in my list, nothing. 803633 26 heri+kde 2009-08-03 12:06:52 +0000 (In reply to comment #25) > - Afterwards nothing happens. No new buddies in my list, nothing. Sorry, there does something happen. Just not as much as I assumed: I have a new category "Facebook", which shows myself as being offline. My Friends are missing there. Question: How did you do this without me every having to register a "Kopete/Facebook" application to Facebook? How do you access the data? 803637 27 heri+kde 2009-08-03 12:09:07 +0000 You cause a crash on exit: Application: Kopete (kopete), signal: Segmentation fault [KCrash Handler] #5 0x0000000000ff3b5a in ??

I think we can go ahead and close this bug. It's being shipped in Kubuntu Karmic and openSUSE for sure. I don't doubt that other distros will pick it up soon, if they haven't already.
