Facebook Gateway sending message many times

[masterxq]

I have a Problem with the Facebook gateway.
On every reconnect to my jabber account i get the same Message again, initial i thought it was a bug in purple-facebook:
dequis/purple-facebook#155 (comment)
But it seems to be a spectrum2 Problem.
I'm using spectrum2 1:2.0.3-1 from Debian Repository.

Thanks for you work!

As this:

[purple]
show-unread=false

Will I still get offline messages with this? Sounds like spectrum is not forwarding receipt confirmation correctly?

[thundergreen]

If you run Facebook as Gateway your xmpp Server wills store offline
messages ;)

So no messages will be lost (like on a reboot)?
How does spectrum know that messages are read (and can be supressed) and facebook doesn't know? They are marked as unread within facebook. They should be marked as read when they are received, then there's no need to supress them. What am I missing?

[thundergreen]

O! Normally the Gateway should pull the messages and Store them in the mam or whatever on your xmpp server. And indeed they should be marked as read yes.

[vitalyster]

@rigid normally messages are marked read in pidgin on conversation window focus. Spectrum emulate this event when it receives XMPP "active" chatstate (XEP-0085) from client. If the client is not support this extension it is better to disable "unread" messages support as shown above.

[rigid]

@vitalyster ah thanks.
@masterxq which client(s) do you use?

i'm currently using Pidgin and Conversations. Neither of both seem to support the XEP-0085 thingy currently :(

[vitalyster]

@rigid Conversations support different XEP for the same purpose - XEP-0333: Chat Markers. Maybe need to add support for them in Spectrum :)

[rigid]

hm, i'm confused. it seems that libpurple needs to have "unseen_count" decreased/set. The purple backend only does this, when the user is typing: https://github.com/hanzz/spectrum2/blob/master/backends/libpurple/main.cpp#L662
(did I miss the XEP-0085 stuff?)

Additionally, there seems to be a problem with purple-facebook. There is: dequis/purple-facebook#221 open
