Description Vishesh Handa 2011-07-06 18:02:09 UTC

Version:           git-latest (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

Every time I launch the Contact list, it shows me all my groups - "Friends", "Family", "School", and all the lists are collapsed. I then need to click on "Show/Hide groups" button cause I don't like groups. Then I need to click on the one remaining group whose name is my jabber account, and then I can finally see my contacts.

I need to do this every time the contact list is started. Please try to fix this.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Written above ^


Expected Results:  
It should remember which groups I had open, and if I had clicked on the "Show/Hide Groups" button.

[12:01] <Sho_> d_ed: I've reopened the contacts list about half a dozen times during the last ~hour of testing and had to recheck the hide groups tool button every time
[12:01] <Sho_> at the same time it did however save my choice of the compact list style
[12:02] <Sho_> so i'm fairly certain the group hiding thigng is buggered :-)

 if (guiConfigGroup.readEntry("use_groups", true)) {
        onGroupContacts(true);
        m_groupContactsAction->setChecked(true);
    }

I'm willing to be the default setup is to show the groups - at which point this code needs an "else {onGroupContacts(false)" (or to rearrange some other code).

Fix preferences load code.

There was a logic error in there causing stored boolean preferences
to only be applied when they were set to true, thus e.g. disabling
groups wouldn't survive accross restarts.
