Description Gabriel 2014-03-17 16:38:13 UTC
Error conection and fixed rename the list for: facebook friends. (account @chat.facebook.com)

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Martin Klapetek 2014-03-17 16:48:12 UTC
Thanks for the report, but I'm confused. 

Can you please describe exactly what is wrong, how to reproduce and what should be the desired result?
Comment 2 Gabriel 2014-03-17 16:50:52 UTC
option into the list contacts= rename group
result=error rename
Comment 3 Martin Klapetek 2014-03-17 17:00:08 UTC
So you are trying to rename a group from your facebook account? Yes, that is expected to fail as facebook does not provide the necessary interface for xmpp groups.

We could still rename things and store locally when server does not support it. There could be a mapping in config file like 

[Groups rename]
facebookId@chat.facebook.com+Friends on Facebook = Whatever I renamed it to

Also please next time use the full interface, the guided one[1], especially the "steps to reproduce" field with the numbered steps, we request all the information there for a reason. Thanks

We shouldn't throw up a massive error though. Particularly not so disconnected from the UI.

Thank you for the bug report.

As this report hasn't seen any changes in 5 years or more, we ask if you can please confirm that the issue still persists.

If this bug is no longer persisting or relevant please change the status to resolved.

Dear user, unfortunately Telepathy is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
