I get this message since yesterday! I'm using kopete 0.12.1 (KDE 3.5.2) on KUbuntu 5.10 (all updates). I compiled kopete on my own. My sister uses kopete 0.11.x + icq and has no problems!

What could be the problem? Can I fix it by using anothoer icq-server? I'm using login.oscar.aol.com on port 5190 right now.

... way to connect through the tor network (http://tor.eff.org) to the different services? It is very important (especially for the europeans) to save our privacy. Encryption over GPG is only the half way.

Install dante, configure it to route traffic through tor and enable socks support in KDE

thanks, i tried this now for some weeks, but it isn't a very usefull option to get tor support into kopete.sometimes it works, sometimes it is working not.

it seems that kopete tries first to connect to the different networks through dante/tor, but if that fails, then kopete try to connect to the networks without dante/tor. and thats a very bad idea, because someone who use the tor network, would save his privacy. he would connect to those networks with tor and if this isn't possible for the moment, he wouldn't connect to the networks.

also kopete did not inform the user if he connects without the configured dante /tor way. there must be a way to told kopete: never connect to networks, without dante/tor, but i didn't found a switch like that.

so at the moment it isn't a very usefull tool for ppl who will save their privacy :-( users who will have privacy ar better using another tool like gain.

Hi,
Iget the following error on compiling:
meanwhilesession.h:187: error: extra qualification ‘MeanwhileSession::’ on member ‘createConversationData
I'm using gcc-4.1.0, glibc-2.4 meanwhile-1.0.2 kde-3.5.3 qt-3.3.6. Distro is SuSE, system is i386.
And another question:
I'm using ortsp-0.9.1. Do I still need 0.7.1 to compile with lisper enabled?

Greetings

Appimages

To install any downloaded Appimage via GUI, use this tool AppImagelauncher.

To install Appimages from Appimagehub via CLI use appimage-cli-tool.
This allows you to e.g. search appimages with "app search xyz" and install any appimage via command "app install #id".

If you are a developer who is interested to easily build appimages from your code repo, read the guide here.
