Description Joshua Dunamis 2009-04-27 15:43:57 UTC
Version:           0.70.2 (using 4.2.2 (KDE 4.2.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.28-11-generic

I try to explain the problem, I'm not english, therefore excuse my errors.

The problem may affects only msn protocol, the one I'm using. It starts and works fine, but after a few of minutes, exspecially if I leave my pc unused, I find the contacts lists status untouched. For example there were on line Mike, John and Steve, bused Mary, off line Philip. After an hour I find the same situation. So if I disconnect and reconnect I see that John now is off line, Mike is bused and Mary is on line. In other words, what I was looking before was a freezed contact list status because in the while my contacts chanced their status. 
I hope you understand what I want to tell you. 
The contact list freezes my contacts status while they chanced it.

Furthermore, you are actually OFFLINE but the 'freeze' makes it looks as if you are online, can you confirm this behaviour too Joshua?
Comment 2 Joshua Dunamis 2009-06-04 23:43:24 UTC
Just right!

Well this problem looks the same as the following bugs which appeared in much older version of Kopete, which were resolved.

Just putting this out there, may be helpful to developers if coming across this bug.

This should be fixed in KDE 4.2.4 and 4.3 and later.
