Users never leave

Description
I'm running 3.0 compiled on Debian 5 with the default configuration. I'm only using it for Google Chat over XMPP, so I can't tell the full extent of this problem, but contacts *never* quit the channel once they've appeared. I've been using 3.0 for almost a week, and according to my logs no users have left the channel for any reason.
If I turn off the account, it looks like a netsplit rather than actually quitting users (like it used to in 1.2.8).

I was probably too hasty in assigning priority. I just jumped as high as I could since it felt like it was breaking one of the main points of IM communication (i.e. presence notification).
In any case, glad to see it's been fixed already. I'll just go back to 1.2.8 until 3.0.1 is officially available. Out of curiosity, what was the scope of this problem? Was it all of bitlbee, just Jabber, only Google Jabber connections... ?

Only XMPP. The bug was pretty stupid and if I waited a few more days before releasing 3.0 I may have found it in time. Then again, putting a "stable" stamp on something always releases a herd of testers who find all kinds of bugs. :>
But yeah, I reserve priorities above major for security-related things, and major for things like "doesn't log in at all".

Oops. So of course I should've closed this.

It's baaaack...
Some users are showing as logging on and off just fine, but today one particular user never showed as logged off (despite leaving and returning several times during the day, I later learned) until I turned my Jabber account off then back on.

Yep. And I'm up to 3.0.2 as of a week or so ago. So the user that displayed improperly *did* show correctly for at least a few days. And flipping the account off & on ended up with significantly fewer online contacts after reconnection.

This is an issue with GTalk. I've seen it myself with xmlconsole turned on, there simply were no <presence type="unavailable"/> stanzas sent for people who did go offline. If you're sure you see this with BitlBee only, an xmlconsole dump would be useful.

This wasn't a problem until I upgraded to 3.0.2, though... 3.0.1 seemed fine, so my temporary solution was to just downgrade.
I'm back at 3.0.2 and keeping an xmlconsole dump; I'll send it over if this happens again.

By the way; would his be affected by the fact that my IRC client (irssi) changes my /nick when I set Away? I know bitlbee now allows nick changes, and I'm not sure if there are any other ramifications to that.

I don't think anything changed in 3.0.2 that could cause this so this is probably unrelated. Please let me know if you find something in the xmlconsole logs.
Yes, known issue. Fixed in bzr and in the 3.0.1 that will hopefully come out soon.
Since this is not in any way related to security this obviously can't be priority=blocker.
