Chatty can no longer start since the last update - anonymous - 05-21-2022
Hello
I cannot read my SMS, Chatty doesn't open anymore since the last update (libpurple?). When I naively tried to run it in command line by entering "chatty", it complained about a missing shared library libjabber.so.0. What can I do to fix it? Where should I look for error logs?

Hi,
same error here...
It looks like it will be fixed in the next version of chatty 0.6.4:

Thank you for your reply. "ln -s" might help in the meantime but maybe I should just wait for a clean fix.

I tried building Chatty 0.6.4 from here https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/chatty/-/tree/v0.6.4
but I had an error on the meson build stage (meson.build:113:0: ERROR: Subproject exists but has no meson.build file)
Try at your own risk, I forced installation of 0.6.4-1 from https://packages.debian.org/sid/arm64/chatty/download
using
Code:
sudo apt-get install -f ./chatty_0.6.4-1_arm64.deband that worked for me. Hopefully my build attempts did not affect it and would work for others. I have not tested it but it runs i.e. launches as per normal.
Hopefully a fix will be available via the usual Mobian updates.

I entered this in command line:
wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/c/chatty/chatty_0.6.4-1_arm64.deb
sudo dpkg -i chatty_0.6.4-1_arm64.deb
Then, I rebooted my pinephone (mandatory, otherwise you just get a blank Chatty) and it worked
dcinoz, as you can see in the bug report, the fix will be available in about 4 days for others.

When building from source, I received an error for a missing libpurple0.so file. I had libpurple0 in my /var/cache/archives still so it worked after I downgraded by running:
dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libpurple0_2.14.8-1_arm64.deb
I did the same thing with pidgin-data prior to that, but I don't think it fixed anything.

That worked for me, thank you!

I hit the same problem and was able to fix it without installing anything:
Code:
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/purple-2 chattyIt's the advice provided here, except replacing "x86_64" with "aarch64" in the path: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1011166
By the way, is there any way to know if apt-upgrading will break our phones ahead of time? I would have been happy to just not upgrade until the fix is up.

Not that I know of other than holding off on potentially problematical updates and keeping an eye out here for reports of problems.
I do full image backups of my eMMC periodically so if something serious breaks I can get the phone back to a working state. I also keep a "known to work" sd card handy just in case.

Received update yesterday that included chatty. Chatty now launches successfully and I can send/receive texts again. The new chatty version has new features that seem quite useful.
I appreciate so much the work that all of the developers put into advancing this functionality of the pinephone. I will continue to support by using the device and software that I enjoy using. I will try to find other ways to support as best as I can.
