Bug Description

Binary package hint: empathy

I am unable to place a call to the echo test. I have tried both my gtalk account and my jabber.org account.
I have installed the https://launchpad.net/~telepathy/+archive/ppa packages and I am running Lucid Lynx.
When trying to call i use the ctrl+m option and put "<email address hidden>" in the contact id box.
The window comes up and says "Forbinder..." which is the danish word for "connecting..."
The window stays open but noting else happens. In the terminal this is the output:
(empathy:17344): tp-fs-DEBUG: GetSessionHandlers returned 0 sessions
and when I finally give up and close down the window it says:
(empathy:17344): tp-fs-DEBUG: tf_channel_dispose

I am happy to provide any other information you might need.
Ubuntu Lucid Lynx: 10.4
Installeret: 2.30.2-1~ppa10.04+1 (Installeret is the danish word for installed)

Oh but the problem was there with the Ubuntu repository as well. I just
installed the other package because it was supposed to maybe solve the
problem.
I will promptly install the official version again.

to make test call you have to add echo bot as your contact. you cant make calls without adding *it* to your contact list.

Is that true for all contacts when using Jabber or just this one? Maybe it
would be good to put a notice in the call section of empathy?

Well I am now "friends" with echobot and can see the picture of the badgers.
I have tried calling it and i have tried having it call me with "!callme".
When I called it the "call window" does like before and just says
"Connecting" indefinetely (though I can see i picture of badgers now). When
I use !callme it says "Please wait" and then nothing happens.

As I said earlier that is what I have done :-)
I am now running, according to sudo apt-cache policy empathy:
empathy:
  Installeret: 2.30.2-0ubuntu1
  Kandidat: 2.30.2-0ubuntu1
  Versionstabel:
 *** 2.30.2-0ubuntu1 0

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     2.30.0.1-0ubuntu3 0
        500 http://dk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages

and the problem persists. See my previous post for more details.

Hi.

I have had a call go through to echo bot at one point (I also spoke to the
guy in charge of it and apparently it had been out of order for some time).
Right now it is not working, but I am sitting at my university right now so
it could be blocked. Regarding calls to other people: I had trouble calling
one of the developers, but I have since been able to call my girlfriends
computer (running empath on Ubuntu as well) so in conclusion it seem that it
is hard to draw a conclusion. I am very busy for the time being but I can
try to test again when I have more time.

Seems to be more of an availability issue on this bug and therefore I'm marking as invalid. If you know the echobot is available and its not working please feel free to reopen.
