Description Tejas Dinkar 2008-12-09 13:51:20 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When you try to start a chat via bonjour, with someone who isn't accepting connections (ex, they are VPNed out or have a firewall up), bonjour blocks and waits for about 10s, making kopete hang for that time.

Accepting this bug and assigning this to me (PS: yes, I also reported it).

It is due to the synchronous
* socket->waitForConnected()

on line 78 of bonjourcontactconnection.cpp.

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.

Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
