Hello Nicola,
I tried to reproduce the described behavior of course. But I can't see
your issue here on my various installed versions. And I use version from
Wheezy, Jessie, testing and experimental. For me it works in *every*
version. Your bug report is the first active report that says there is a
problem in the autocompletion and as far as I can remember we had never
a bug report that was complaining anything about the autocompletion. So
it is hard for me to believe that we have a problem here.
So I have to ask the question I'm always asking in evetry second report,
have you tried to disable all extensions and retune the behavior? Start
Icedove from a terminal by 'icedove -safe-mode', are there any useful
output to see in the terminal?
OK, I did as you suggest:
I get the following message in the terminal:
(process:30699): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion
'sys_page_size == 0' failed
Then a small dialog opens: I tick no options which would permanently change
settings, and click to "Continue in safe mode". icedove starts ok, although
with a window size different from usual.
I tested the autocompletion problem, and it is still present as detailed in
my report.
Did this happen if you start with a new profile?
Yes. I closed icedove, moved folder .icedove to a different name. Then
restarted icedove in safe mode as above.
It asked me to setup, which I did.
I then created a single entry foo....@test.ee in the otherwise empty address
book. I then clicked on "Write" to created a new message. Started to type
b...@test.ee in the address slot, and at any typing stage icedove would
propose the completion foo....@test.ee
Even if I did not accept the suggestion, icedove would replace b...@test.ee
with foo....@test.ee. And even when I went back to correct the address to
b...@test.ee , as soon as I hit return or tab or click somewhere else, the
address would go back to foo....@test.ee
As a complement of information, I note that in the Icedove Preferences, under
the Addressing tab, the option
When addressing messages, look for matching entries in:
Local Address Books -> is ticked.
Directory Server -> is unticked
As an extra complement of information, I confirm that at least the OpenPGP
add on is not working now that I run icedove in safe mode.
If it did work the way you write above you should close this bug, rather than
changing its severity.
No, changing the severity is something completely different than closing a
report. So why should I close the report? What's important for? I picked
up the entry from https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities
important
a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package,
without rendering it completely unusable to everyone.
For me there is no "major" effect like you can't send anything or
absolutely not use the adressbook or configure new accounts, so your bug
is right now nothing more than the other normal bugs.
OK, thanx.
Ciao,
Nick
