I cannot find my installed account protocols in the Online Accounts configuration. I'm specifically looking for the libpurple plugin purple-facebook (https://github.com/jgeboski/purple-facebook), but also skype4pidgin (https://github.com/EionRobb/skype4pidgin) and non-libpurple protocols like the IRC protocol (telepathy-idle in Arch Linux) seem to be missing. The libpurple interface is of course installed (telepathy-haze in Arch Linux). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to System Settings -> Online Accounts 2. Choose "Create" in the list of options Actual Results: A list of the standard protocols are displayed, but none of the extra ones. Expected Results: The additional protocols should also appear.
I can confirm. All haze-depended protocols are not shown.
Thanks for the report All accounts now require a .provider and a .service file in order to be creatable from Plasma 5. So unless someone creates/ships those files, it won't show up. Btw. do you have a chance to try this with Ubuntu? I wonder if it shows up in Empathy there as the same backend tech is used there.
>>I wonder if it shows up in Empathy there as the same backend tech is used there. I have openSUSE 13.2 with KF5 Factory. Empathy shows these protocols, moreover, I configured them in empathy then started use in KTP.
Right; I'm still interested in Ubuntu/Unity. I don't think openSuse is using the same thing for Empathy.
What you mean by " is not using same thing?"
In Unity, Empathy is integrated with Ubuntu Online Accounts, which uses libaccounts/libsignon in behind the scenes. This is what KDE Telepathy now uses as well, but I don't think Empathy on openSuse actually is using the UOA, thus your Empathy is not using the same thing as Empathy in Unity. In Gnome systems, there is a different system integrated with Empathy for creating accounts, not compatible with anything else.
So, KF5 uses different technique than KDE4? In KDE4 accounts-kcm there are all telepathy-haze-purple services available: http://imgur.com/CNjiqn7 same in Empathy account create dialogue. And now there is need of .service file for every service, like whatsapp, mrim, skype etc ?
Yes.
I've checked Ubuntu. There no purple-based accounts.
In Empathy.
(In reply to Martin Klapetek from comment #8) > Yes. "yes" what? How to enable purple accounts in ktp?
Yes to everything you said in comment #7.
I can confirm the same problem. Is this already resolved upstream, as indicated in the title? Which packages are related or have to be fixed?
Seems like the service-files have been merged. Thanks for the effort. I hope the changes will already be in the 15.12 releases.
The problem still occurs with the KDE Applications 15.12 on Arch Linux. So the service files are still not availlable.
