Public bug reported:
When I run empathy from command line, I can see following in my console
window:
alex@umbrella:~$ empathy &
[1] 3786
alex@umbrella:~$
(empathy:3786): telepathy-WARNING **: tpf-persona.vala:841: Failed to parse new
birthday string '11.06.1981'
(empathy:3786): telepathy-WARNING **: tpf-persona.vala:841: Failed to parse new
birthday string '1/01/1981'
alex@umbrella:~$
Is it a problem to parse these date strings? Seems it would be clear.
The first one:
11.06.1981 is standard form of date in Russia. (day.month.year)
The second is American one:
1/01/1981 ( month/day/year ).
As a programmer, I understand we are expected another date format here,
but why just don't parse it properly in case of exception occured?
If it already parsed properly may be its not usefull to print out this
warning.
