I'm going through the tickets for Licq and would like some help with 
testing if some of the bugs are still applicable.

Below is a list of reported bugs. If you see something you either know 
that it is/isn't a bug or if it is something you can test, please reply 
with what information you can to help me sort them out. Please also 
include which Licq version you're using and if it's a dev-release 
include the git/svn version you built from.

Note that bugs that I've already confirmed as still applicable or 
couldn't reproduce are not included in this list. Enhancement tickets 
are also not included here but will be migrated to a simple list on the 
licq webpage.

675: "Licq adds everyone to my contact list who sends me a
message. It does that since its first version and this
has now become very bad."
Reported 2005-01-03
Any message from a contact that is not in the contact list should be 
added to the "Not in list" group and disappear when Licq is closed. If 
anyone has a problem with these contacts (e.g. spammers etc.) being 
permanently added then let me know.

750: "Autoresponse message isn't saved correctly when locale is 
different than message charset"
Reported 2005-07-21
This was reported with locale=ru_RU.KOI8-R and msgcharset=CP1251 but 
other (non iso8859-1) charset shouldn't matter.
I'm not sure if this refers to the current autoresponse or the 
pre-defined messages that can be entered in the settings dialog so 
please test both.

795: "Auto-Raise on Incoming Msg doesn't work with Gnome2/Metacity"
Reported 2005-10-24 for Licq 1.3.0

849: "Licq fails to modify the server contact list"
Reported 2006-05-21 for Licq 1.3.2
If anyone is seeing "[ERR] Unknown error modifying server list: 0x0A" in 
the network log, please let me know.

1411: "Russian charset (win1251) not working between licq and gaim or 
webicq"
Reported 2006-10-09 for Licq 1.3.2
If anyone is using win1251 and can test with gain or webicq, please let 
me know if it's working. The ticket isn't clear on which direction is 
seeing the problem so test both.

1445: "licq 1.3.4 does not receive message from icq 5.1"
Reported 2006-11-06 for Licq 1.3.4
Someone who can test messages between Licq and ICQ 5.1 please let me 
know. From ICQ 5.1 to Licq should work according to ticket so problem 
should only be one way.

1455: "Licq seems to forget GPG passphrase"
Reported 2006-12-02
If someone is using GPG encryption and having problems, please let me 
know. The ticket reports it working for a while and then failing with 
"[WRN] [GPG] gpgme message decryption failed: Falsche Passphrase" being 
in the network log.

1459: "creating a new config doesn't download all users in list"
Reported 2006-12-08 for Licq 1.3.4
If someone have created a new Licq config and only gotten parts of the 
contact list downloaded from the server, please let me know.

1471 "Custom autoresponse not working"
Reported 2007-01-03 for Licq 1.3.4
If someone is using custom autoresponses and have noted the other person 
seing the normal autoresponse instead of the custom message, let me know.

1480: "Not show info in dock application for WindowMaker Show only empty 
default dock In version 1.3.2 was information about status, messsages 
and other"
Reported 2007-01-07 for Licq 1.3.4
Quoted text is entire ticket. Anyone using WindowMaker that could tell 
if the dock icons are working properly or not, please let me know.

1530: "Serverside contact-list damaged after moving users from one group 
to another"
Reported 2007-08-16 for Licq 1.3.2
If anyone has had problems when moving ICQ contacts between groups, let 
me know. The ticket reports the contact being deleted from the first 
group and then not added to the second group. The next move the resulted 
in the contact being added to awaiting authorization since it was no 
longer in the server side list.

1573: "Error when talking to contact with russian characters in alias"
Reported 2007-10-27 for Licq 1.3.4
If anyone has had problems related to contacts with non-ascii aliases, 
please let me know. The ticket reports an error popup with "Error 
encoding (?????? invie) to UCS-2BE from (unsupported conversion)"

1583: "Problems with dock icon under Window Maker"
Reported 2007-11-09 for Licq 1.3.5
The tickets reports if dragging Licq's dock icon to the dock, the next 
time Licq is started the dock icon is initially empty and after changing 
status a second icon appears (not in the dock) with the info.
Maybe related to 1480 above, again I would like to know if dock icons 
are working properly with WindowMaker.

1632: "Licq is unable to fetch icq6 away messages"
Reported 2008-05-12
If anyone has contacts using ICQ 6, please let me know if away messages 
are readable.
