Ticket #4702 (closed defect: fixed)
Adium does not display pictures received from Gadu Gadu

Description
Gadu Gadu lets you send a picture (max size 20KB) to a user. It is displayed in the chat window. However, Adium does not display the picture. I am attaching a picture of how this is displayed in the original client. I have also verified/tested that this is an issue with the gaim client as well. So this ticket is opened up for tracking purposes.
This is a separate feature from file transfer.

Evan? Any progress on possibly landing at least part of that libgaim patch?
comment:6 Changed 5 years ago by evands
I have no way (or really time) to test a Gadu-Gadu patch... I have no knowledge of the protocol or the prpl code. It would be inappropriate for me to commit the patch to libgaim without thorough testing and knowledge of what the changes might do. The Gadu-Gadu maintainer really needs to look at it or, failing that, I need someone(s) to test it and verify that it works as promised.

I am willing to assist in testing the patch. I am still using the original gadu client. However, I agree with Evan that Bartosz, the Gaim gadu maintainer,should have looked at this. If you want to do a full set of quality tests I can probably test with Eric Ritchie. I also know Elliot has a gadu account if he is ok with assisting with testing I can work with either one.

FWIW, I meant landing the GG patch in our libgaim tree, not necessarily pushing it upstream (that's obviously a Gaim issue).
If you guys want to test this, go ahead.
comment:9 Changed 5 years ago by MarkS
This should only be committed to libgaim tree. I will let Evan decide how he would like to handle this(I am just offering to help out); otherwise, this issue will have to wait(I know Evan is a very busy person). It is a nice to have but it isn't critical.

I prefer to maintain a policy of keeping the Libgaim.framework we're using in sync with either (1) HEAD of libgaim or (2) the most recent libgaim release. If the patch is good enough to ship with Adium, it should be committed upstream; if it isn't, we have no business using it :)
I'll email Bartosz this evening and find out if he plans to review the patch anytime soon, and we'll go from there.

- Patch Status set to Needs Discussion
I'm still not entirely happy with these flags, but setting to "needs discussion."

- Version changed from 1.0b4 to 1.0.3
- Milestone changed from Needs dev review to Waiting on libpurple
According to #p220 the pidgin devs are fully aware of this ticket and patch. Since we're basically waiting on them to implement the patch, this is better off at waiting on libpurple until someone takes action on that codebase.

Hopefully, this will work in 1.3.3.
