Bug Description

Binary package hint: xchat

Hi,

after upgrading from edgy to feisty (don't know if i used the backported xchat from feisty) there is no highlight on new private messages anymore.
On a channel with new messages containing my nickname, the channelname in the windowlist changes to blue. This works correctly.
On a query with a new message, the name in the windowlist will be still black, no change to red.
Colors and settings are untouched.

Regards,
Dominik

Thank you for your bug.
Could you please check if "Flash Taskbar on private messages" is enabled in your settings?

Changed in xchat:

Sorry to ask again, is this behavior still present?

Yes, it still doesn't work as expected.
Messages with a matching highlight word are not shon in the tabs list.
i.e. some writes you a privmsg, the query tab doesn't change its color to red as definied in Colors->New Message.

regards,
dominik

@Eimann: did you try to configure from scratch, e.g. removing (after you did a backup) the .xchat2 directory?
