Unwanted echos in Jabber group chats

Reported by: paul.t.hinze@… Owned by: wilmer
Priority: normal Milestone:
Component: Jabber Version: devel
Keywords: groupchat Cc:
IRC client+version: Client-independent Operating System: Linux
OS version/distro:

Description

Steps to reproduce:

  • connect to a jabber account with username (mine is on an openfire jabber server)
  • ensure that my username does not exist in blist
  • ensure that a multi user chat is defined with chat add
  • join a multi-user chat with /join &groupchatname
  • say 'hello world'
  • the following is displayed:
      <username> hello world 
      <username_> hello world
    
  • go back to &bitlbee and type 'blist all'
  • username_ is listed as Offline for the jabber account
  • if you type "remove username_", duplicate messages no longer show up in &groupchatname but now any messages typed by username cause the following message in &bitlbee:
    jabber(username@chatserver.com) - Message from/to conversation username@chatserver@0xa09b8d8 (unknown conv/user): hello world

Here's some xml console output from the group chat:

11:35 <xmlconsole> TX: <message type="groupchat" to="GROUPCHATNAME@conference.SERVERNAME"><body>blist</body></message>
11:35 <xmlconsole> RX: <message type="groupchat" to="phinze@SERVERNAME/BitlBee" 
                   from="GROUPCHATNAME@conference.SERVERNAME/phinze"><body>blist</body></message>
11:35 <xmlconsole> TX: <message type="groupchat" to="GROUPCHATNAME@conference.SERVERNAME"><body>whoops</body></message>
11:35 <xmlconsole> RX: <message type="groupchat" to="phinze@SERVERNAME/BitlBee" 
                   from="GROUPCHATNAME@conference.SERVERNAME/phinze"><body>whoops</body></message>

Output in &GROUPCHATNAME:

11:35 < phinze> blist
11:35 < phinze_> blist
11:35 < phinze> whoops
11:35 < phinze_> whoops

After debugging for awhile, I think I've figured out how to fix this. Please see the attached patch and let me know if this is the right idea.

Hello,

My apologies for not responding at all to this for a long time. :-(

I'm worried that your patch is just hiding a real bug under the carpet. IIRC this is already done elsewhere, so I'm just wondering how the messages are still getting through, and more specifically, where the phinze_ comes from at all.

Are you still seeing this problem? Is this with an anonymous or non-anonymous room?

No worries, wilmer. :)

I actually don't think I've seen this problem on trunk for a while now. You can close this ticket for now and I can re-open or file a new one if I see this behavior again. Thanks.
