Package: kmerlin
Version: 1.4.2-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

I can't connect to MSN with my account, [EMAIL PROTECTED], with
nickname "Test". My sister couldn't when I asked her to test her
account. I couldn't connect either on my other sarge machine. This
machine was dist-upgraded today.
The cause is probably MSN protocol changes, probably the one that
triggered kdenetwork's 4:3.3.2-4 upload. Nevertheless, I don't think
it's a good idea to ship a package that's already unusable at release
time, particularly when, unlike kopete, it's only designed to connect to
MSN, and there are no plans to put it in volatile, unlike gaim.

I never used this package, so I'm not the best person to open this bug.
Steps to reproduce:
1. $ kmerlin
2. Enter Login, any Nick name and corresponding Password.
3. Click Connect.

Expected result :
kmerlin shows connection success somehow.

Actual result :
"Not connected" in status bar changes to "Try other server", then back
to "Not connected".

kmerlin:

There were no uploads since 2004-08-25, so this is not really a surprise. I 
don't know why nobody else reported that, though. The package is probably just 
too low quality (no translations, hardly any manual) to be used and there are 
several alternatives. I couldn't find upstream (see 312048). 
http://kmerlin.sourceforge.net is mentioned in /usr/share/doc/kmerlin/copyright 
but I can't figure out how the current 1.4.2 could be obtained from there. 
Freshmeat also points to outdated stuff.

If anybody else succeeds to connect to MSN with kmerlin, this bug should be
downgraded at least to important.
