Description Vit Pelcak 2013-04-30 15:01:11 UTC

I have several friends in contact list connected using mobile phone (in FB we ui there are shown with cell phone icon).

However these are not shown in contact list.
I think they should.

Reproducible: Always

If Facebook XMPP service does not provide this information then there's not a lot we can do.
It is rather limited, see: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/chat/

I'll double check the stanzas Facebooks server sends.

Note that you can still show offline contacts / search for these contacts and send them messages just like any other offline contacts.

Yep, I know that FB XMPP is limited.

I didn't knwo how much, so I chose to report and let you decide.

to us, they're offline. Sorry.

Comment 4 Martin Klapetek 2013-05-16 12:00:24 UTC

I'm reclosing it as 'UPSTREAM' as that's where it should be fixed (if possible at all) and that's the proper bug resolution :)

In case anyone wants to take this further, the place to go is https://bugs.freedesktop.org/ - product 'telepathy' and component 'gabble'.

No, I looked on Vacuum XML logs. 
The "bug" is Facebook. Pester them.

Still a sort of upstream I guess :)
