[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#717463: hangs on connection to xmpp server that does not send <features>

[Daniel Brooks]

It appears that libpurple doesn't wait for a <features> tag at all, it
just immediately tries to log in. However, when connecting to the google
talk xmpp server it instead immediately does a starttls. I haven't
looked at their source, but I note that google is sending the <stream>
tag and the <features> tag in the very first packet, so perhaps it sees
the packet boundary and guesses that my server isn't going to send any
features tag at all.
