Description Sebastian Turzański 2006-09-18 11:50:29 UTC

Version:           0.12.1 (using KDE 3.5.4 "release 71.1" , openSUSE )
Compiler:          Target: i586-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.16.21-0.21-smp

I tried with gaim and they were online , returned to kopete- they're still offline. It does not happen everytime

Is it possible that the contact was truly not online when you signed in with Kopete vs. when you signed in with gaim? Basically, I'm trying to figure out exactly how it is you know that the contact is online and that Kopete is telling you the wrong thing, since these sorts of problems are quite hard to reproduce.

yes 100% and I talked to the contat with another messenger and he told me he was online and chating

Comment 3 Sebastian Turzański 2006-10-17 11:28:39 UTC

still exists in 0.12.3

Comment 4 Josh Bryan 2006-11-16 21:17:33 UTC

I am using 0.12.3 from openSUSE KDE 3.5.5 "release 45.1" and am observing the exact same phenomenon.  I can actively chat with a contact who is logged in using yahoo instant messenger (yahoo v.8.0.0.506 BETA), but the title bar claims he is offline.  A second contact (who appears online) can simultaneously confirm that the contact in question is indeed online.

bug still present in kopete 0.12.4

Comment 7 Andre Duffeck 2007-09-29 14:36:03 UTC

This should already be fixed. Please reopen if the problem still exists in the svn or KDE 3.5.8 kopete.
