Description

Observed the following in telepathy-salut.log:

(telepathy-salut:14931): tp-glib/params-DEBUG: tp_cm_param_setter_offset: nickname = "Sascha Silbe"
(telepathy-salut:14931): tp-glib/params-DEBUG: tp_cm_param_setter_offset: first-name = ""
(telepathy-salut:14931): tp-glib/params-DEBUG: tp_cm_param_setter_offset: last-name = ""
(telepathy-salut:14931): tp-glib/params-DEBUG: tp_cm_param_setter_offset: jid = "d0693262a0d0ae006cc9fedca6d8176571a0a3a9@flatty.sascha.silbe.org"
(telepathy-salut:14931): tp-glib/params-DEBUG: tp_cm_param_setter_offset: published-name = "Sascha Silbe"

My configure nick name in Sugar is different from the above. On many machines (e.g. running OLPC builds) the GECOS name will be something generic.

Without further testing (due to #2217) I assume that this name will appear on other local clients (e.g. running GNOME), so we should fix this.

We are configuring the connections with the name in /desktop/sugar/user/nick

What I think it's happening is that Sugar is using the GECOS name as the initial nick name.

  • Summary changed from Salut: GECOS full name instead of Sugar nick name used to Salut uses different nick name than Sugar

Replying to tomeu:

I have Telepathy installed both in the distro and in sugar-jhbuild, regular dbus in the distro and GConf-dbus in sugar-jhbuild. It might be that this leads to different gconf databases being used by Sugar and by Telepathy. The non-dbus one contains "Sascha Silbe" as nick name.
So with some luck this might resolve itself once we kick GConf-dbus from sugar-jhbuild and have up-to-date Telepathy packages in the distros.
