Yes, I have this problem, not sure what it actually affects these days though (e.g. MSN?), so I just uninstalled the relevant 2 debs (telepathy-extras and -salut)

I don't like to say this, but please, use the search. This has been discussed many (many) times. It's a problem in the postinit script - very easy to fix.

i am having the same problem. if i go to advance settings, the port no is "0". i have no idea what should be the actual value. i will appreciate if ppl who can successfully connecting msn can tell me the correct port no.

thanks

Hey Fahad,
Okay open xterm
Code:

sudo gainroot
after "/home/user # " you have to use vi editor
type :
Code:

vi /var/lib/dpkg/info/account-plugin-salut.postinst
then this will open

Code:

#!/bin/sh

gtk-update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons/hicolor

# Avahi doesn't like starting itself. This is a bit of a hack though.
/etc/init.d/avahi-daemon start

you go to line :
Code:

/etc/init.d/avahi-daemon start
Then click on letter "i" that will get you into editing mode .
now add # before /etc . so it will look like this :

Code:

# /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon start
Then you type in "ZZ" it's case sensitive means save and exit .

that will exit then you can go back to and check if # is there .
then try to update using app manager and it will work . if not open xterminal as a root and type :

Code:

apt-get update
once it's done

Code:

apt-get upgrade

I hope that helps you , let me know . Thx

after you type in the # where do you put the zz? Is it after the line that we just altered?

Re: is everyone having an error with extra protocol plugins for conversations and contacts v10?
 
the "ZZ" is a command to save and exit vi.
But you have to leave the editing mode prior.
So, after inserting "#" you have to hit the "esc" button.
Then type ZZ (upcase letters!).

the only problem I do have with pidging is that ICQ wont connect ..just MSN and Yahoo. I hope someone can come up with some sort of solution.
