v0.9.5-9ff9acf9fa14
726b7b9

This release fixes "Failed to read thrift" errors which some users may get on login (and probably all users in the next weeks)

It also contains a bunch of long overdue patches that were stuck in backporting hell (first from bitlbee-facebook, then from purple3 to purple2) and now can be free. This is also why the hash in the release name changed from c9b74a765767 to 9ff9acf9fa14 - the previous releases just used patches to fix things, now those are integrated in the purple3 version of this plugin. Yes, this plugin has a weird development workflow.

Changes ported from bitlbee-facebook:

  • Don't fail on groupchats with only two members including self (Those are created by the "Marketplace" feature)
  • Use FetchContactsDeltaQuery for contact sync
  • Don't disconnect when trying to join a chat after being kicked
  • Extract target url from fbrpc:// URLs
  • Handle new style topic/groupchat membership events
  • Fix setting channel topics (tid=t_id.1234 is no longer valid)
  • Fix creating threads, inviting, kicking members (misc api changes)

Changes specific to purple-facebook:

  • Add everyone to "Facebook Friends" group and persist Non-Friends
  • Don't save access token if not remembering password
  • Save names of non-friends in the local alias in blist.xml
  • Add "Mark messages as read only when available" setting
