Description

I use Gajim with two jabber accounts and enabled local (Avahi) network service support which is displayed as a third account. When my computer is completely disconnected the Gajim tray icon still indicates to be online. Pointing the mouse cursor over the tray icon shows the two Jabber accounts are offline (of course) but the Avahi support is still online. Actually this is correct because other users on my computer could virtually be online but this is not what I expected. I would expect Gajim to indicate to be online only when it has connected to at least one (real) account. I guess most other PC users who do not share their computer with other users at the same time would expect the same. But what to indicate if only one of two Jabber accounts are online for instance? Probably an additional icon to indicate _limited connectivity_ for all this cases would be an appropriate solution.

  • type changed from enhancement to defect

This is not really connected to avahi. Same happens if you have a weak connection to one of the jabber servers while the rest works. You end up having the icon displaying status of one random account.
