amsn can't log in

I haven't got this problem with amsn 0.97RC1+dfsg-0ubuntu1.

Maybe you can try to obtain a backtrace.
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash

Do you also use amd64?

I suspect that an ordinary backtrace would be useless, as aMSN is written in TCL, an interpreted language, so the backtrace would only be of the interpreter. Also I would have to figure out where to put a breakpoint, as aMSN as I said doesn't crash, but continue working.

I am sure that there are other, recommended ways of debugging TCL, I don't know them and unfortunately don't have the time to research that right now.

Yes, I use amd64. I've just install amsn on a fresh gutsy install.

I did some more testing.

It seems that if I disable "auto-connect on startup" then I get a proper login after a restart. If I then re-enable auto-connect and restarts amsn again the problem returns.

I confirm the bug.

It appears only when you enable auto-connect on startup.

I made a security update and amsn failed to login

On console I received

daniel@guine:~$ amsn &
[1] 16654
daniel@guine:~$ wish8.5: error while loading shared libraries: libtcl8.5.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[1]+ Exit 127 amsn
daniel@guine:~$

Gutsy has tcl8.5?? O.o

Yes, it has

At least I have installed it

8.5.0.a5-3v1ubuntu0

is the installed version

It is installed by some dependency I am not aware of

I have also installed another package tcl8.4

version
8.4.16-4ubuntu1

I did not installed directly these packages but they came by dependence.

Please see this:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=default&section=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=tcl8.5

Also 8.5.0.a5-3v1ubuntu0 is not an official package of Ubuntu repositories. You are using unofficial repositories.

Well,

I uninstalled tcl8.5 and amsn was uninstalled ...

whem I try to install amsn it requires tcl8.5 and tk8.5 again

My amsn is

0.97+final-0ubuntu5

and synaptic asks for tcl8.5 and tk8.5

I will try to install the version

amsn (0.97RC1+dfsg-0ubuntu1)

by hand

I did it by hand and it worked ...

It is strange... I am using multiverce and universe repositories. Maybe this
is the reason of my problem

   - gutsy-backports
<http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy-backports/tcl8.5>(interpreters): Tcl
(the Tool Command Language) v8.5 - run-time files [
   *universe*]

          8.5.0-2~gutsy1: amd64 i386 powerpc

ok, but tcl 8.5 backport of Gutsy is 8.5.0-2~gutsy1 no 8.5.0.a5-3v1ubuntu0

Does this problem still exist with amsn 0.97.2~debian-0ubuntu2 (Intrepid)? Thanks in advance.

No, this bug its resolved in that version. I found this bug only in 0.97, resolved in 0.97.1 and 0.97.2. Thanks.
