Description Rusty Russell 2008-11-12 08:45:54 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Other end on MacOS, whatever MSN client is normal there.  We worked out that normal MSN smilies work, extended ones result in a blank line (even with other text on the line).

I do get the start of the line come up in the bubble if focus is away from window, but always that empty line.

This worked with Ubuntu 8.4 (KDE 3).

We've completely replaced the current MSN implementation with a new MSN
implementation. If you continue to experience this bug after testing the
new implementation (which can be gotten from our subversion repository or with
the KDE 4.2 Beta 1 release), PLEASE, open a new bug rather than reopening this
bug. Thank you for your time and efforting in helping us find and fix problems
in Kopete.
