Description Zsolt Peter Basak 2009-06-24 07:49:11 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.4)
Compiler:          gcc4.4.0 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux

Plugins: OTR

How to reproduce: Disable everything like User-specified font color, fonts, etc. Disable smileys everywhere. And have a contact on MSN who uses smileys.

Somehow, the partner said the she doesnt uses characters for the missing words, only for "o" for example, but that one works. I couldn't think anything else besides the smileys. But it seems thats not the issue.

It looks like this:
Example1: Kola, koszi
That becomes:: ola, oszi

Example2: betuvel
That becomes: betuel
(the u - e becomes one (really close to each other) but there is nothing between them)

If I try to copy the line and paste it to kopete, I Cant see anything.

It looks like this if I paste the lines into Firefox:
"hát tényleg nemtom,de csa a  betűel van ily"
"mindeninél j"

ps.: I tried KDEbug application turn to max, run kopete from terminal, but no help. No errors.

Tried this method as well:
Open a terminal and play with the next line:
export LC_ALL=hu_HU.UTF-8
then start kopete from there:
kopete

Tried these ones: hu_HU.ISO-8859-2, en_US, en_US-UTF-8, POSIX

Any idea?
Comment 1 Dario Andres 2009-06-24 16:35:29 UTC
A couple of "wrong message when using emoticons with the OTR plugin" bugs were fixed and detailed here: bug 182114. Could you please look at it and check if they are related?
Thanks
Comment 2 Zsolt Peter Basak 2009-06-24 17:31:25 UTC
OTR plugin is not enabled in this conversation, and it happens even if I disable it. By the way its "Directorybranches/KDE/4.1/" , and mine is 4.2.4. Doesn't it matter? (And the submitter used KDE4.2.0)
Comment 3 Dario Andres 2009-06-24 17:34:06 UTC
The fixed for bug 182114 were done at 4.3trunk code some time ago, so I guess the issue was fixed in 4.3, 4.2.x code may be still affected.
But as you said it is unrelated to OTR then they may be different bugs.
Thanks
Comment 4 Matt Rogers 2009-06-24 20:11:11 UTC
does it help if you turn off OTR?
Comment 5 Zsolt Peter Basak 2009-06-25 06:38:12 UTC
As I already said , it doesnt matters if I turn it off, on. And with that contact of mine, we never used OTR. I only use OTR with my jabber/xmpp contacts. (And about 1-2 person on MSN).
