[Pkg-telepathy-maintainers] Bug#659118: empathy freezes after some time

[Martin Suklitsch]

Package: empathy
Version: 3.2.2-1+b1
Severity: important

Hi,

since upgrading empathy to 3.2.2.1 (from 3.0.something) empathy freezes after
some time - could be minutes, could be hours (can't tell more detailed, sorry),
its process has status "SNl".

If I then kill empathy and start it up again the contact list window pops
up,but it freezes instantly (no contacts are shown, hitting the 'close' button
results in the dialog box 'Contact list is not responding' where I can force
the program to quit).

If I kill empathy as well as all instances of telepathy (-logger, -salut,
-gabble and mission-control-5, all of them having status "S" or "Sl" then) and
start up empathy again it works for some time before freezing again and the
whole game starts anew.

Kind regards,
Martin


PS: Since this is my very first bug report I don't actually know what other
information you need from me and what is submitted by reportbug itself...
