[Christoph Egger]

Package: gossip
Version: 1:0.30-1
Severity: important

>From time to time the gossip contact list is empty although there are
contacts online and they are shown as online in the message window.
Checking «Show offline contacts» does not show all contacts (It only 
showed the first last time I checked).

This is an mixed list of nativ XMPP Contacts and Oscar/ICQ contacts
