Description Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer 2009-05-03 23:07:16 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

From: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=426293
Reported by: Benjamin Eikel <debian@eikel.org>

Dear kopete maintainers,

I renamed a group, which contained some ICQ-only, some Jabber-only and some ICQ-and-Jabber contacts. After a few days I wondered why only the Jabber users were online and 
all ICQ users always offline (only the Jabber part of the combined users was shown online too). I talked to a few of the ICQ users and they told me that they were online. It 
was not possible to request their authorization again so I logged in with ICQ2Go. There I saw that the whole group was missing in my ICQ contact list. Somehow kopete deleted these users (I am sure that this was done by kopete because I am 
not using any other IM client [except ICQ2Go for testing this time]) and did not create the new group on the icq server. I got them back by deleting these users from my 
kopete contact list, adding them again and asking for the authorization. Maybe it is possible for you to reproduce the bug. If I should try to reproduce it please tell me how to log the 
things kopete does (maybe strace?). Then I will try with a test group or something.

Regards,
Benjamin Eikel

Hello,

I tested it again with the the KDE4 version of Kopete. I took a group (group 
name contains spaces) and renamed it. After restarting Kopete I have two 
groups: The old one and the new one. The old one contains all meta-contacts 
that contain at least one Jabber contact. The ICQ only contacts were moved to 
the new group. So there still seems to be a bug with this.
After that I renamed both groups to the same name (only containing letters). 
These two groups were not joined so that I have two groups with the same name 
in the contact list.
At last I created a new group and moved the contacts from the two groups with 
drag and drop to the new one. This time it worked and the contacts are in one 
group again.

Kind regards,
Benjamin
