I can confirm the problem and in my opinion this is definitely a problem, even if Janne is right and the key finally gets generated after a long time. My system is not under load at all during the key generation.
I started gaim with strace. The output of the last few lines is attached. The last select statement with the "(Timeout)" gets repeated over and over. Unfortunately I am not elite enough to make sense out of this. Hope that will be fixed in Gutsy cause OTR support in gaim / pidgin is pretty important for the privacy of the Ubuntu users. ** Attachment added: "last few lines of output from 'strace gaim'" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9007673/stace_output ** Changed in: gaim-otr (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- Gaim always crashes with Off-The-Record Messaging plugin https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/97010 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
