Gajim - 2024-10-05

    Hello guys. I've just noticed that when I send a reaction to any message in Gajim. This message is shown as not encrypted with OMEMO in Cheogram. Is this normal?

  3. pinkolik

    So it's according to some XMPP standard?

  4. chud

    yes whatever message you react to is leaked plain text

  5. chud

    nope, it's a bug and a security issue

  6. pinkolik

    Got it. Thank you

    > yes whatever message you react to is leaked plain text the message which has been reacted to is referenced by an ID. if it has been encrypted, a reaction won't leak any text

    Hi, I just recognised that, when I use Gajim 1.9.5, I have some problems sending some filetypes when OMEMO encryption is activated. The files do not appear in the Chat (even in Gajim). This happens for apk files, Libreofficefiles and maybe for some others. Is this is a known limitation/bug. It did not happen before upgrading. I am using the flatpak version of gajim.

    chud, https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0444.html#sending-reactions Only the id of the message is included in the reaction stanza.

  12. lissine

    Notice that the reaction stanza doesn't have a `<body> </body>`

  13. lissine

    Notice that the reaction message doesn't have a `<body> </body>`

Additionally, it's the first time for years, that Gajim missed some messages (messages which I do not see in Gajim but in the other clients).

    Would be interesting if other people recognised some of this behaviour.

    > Hund, hmmm, nothing comes to mind, please supply debug logs then i could take a closer look if there are errors with your archive If I figure out how to fix a debug log. :)

    > maybe archive retention is to low? I don't know? Ask Snikket. :D

  20. p42ity

    Hund: That's interesing: My bug "in rare cases a message does not sync/is not shown in gajim" also happens on a Snikket instance. But it happens since gajim 1.9.5.

  22. lovetox

    im not aware we changed anything regarding message sync

  23. lovetox

    you can send me a debug log then i can take a look

    lovetox: I'm still getting this weird nick issue where my original nick and changed nick are showing in gajim as both being present. Is there any way you could tell me which part of the debug log you need so I don't have to send the full thing?

  26. lovetox

    did we not determine its an ejabberd bug

  27. lovetox

    did we not determine its an ejabberd bug, with occupant id

  28. fjklp

    No, that was a different problem on a different server running ejabberd. The one you are thinking of was that when the server reboots, my occupant-id changes, so when I send a message, gajim shows it as coming from someone else. The new problem is on a different server running ejabberd. It seems that it's not using occupant-id, I don't see it in my logs at all. What happens is that when I change my nick, I see both my original nick and new nick in the roster. Sometimes this resolves eventually to just show the new nick. But it can also revert back to showing both later when I restart gajim.

  29. fjklp

    I am the only person in the muc if it makes a difference

  30. fjklp

    wait, this seems to be caused by Conversations using a different nick. Shouldn't the nick change get synced from gajim to other clients?

  31. fjklp

    also, I see that when I posted a message from Conversations with the old nick, gajim shows it in red

  32. lovetox

    yes this is because you have a second device

  33. lovetox

    that a server merges multiple device to one, is a extension not really specified, but every server does that someway or another

  34. lovetox

    if you change your nick in gajim, i expect you send messages with the new nick, if that is the case everything worked as expected from gajim side

  35. lovetox

    im not sure what conversations should then do, or not, it gets notified of the new nick, or maybe not because of the server?

  36. lovetox

    i guess if you dont have the same problem here in this chat

  37. lovetox

    then its a ejabberd thing again
