Title: Gwibber not adding Twitter account Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “gwibber” source package in Precise: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] Twitter's API now enforces SSL for all requests, which makes the gwibber account dialog fail to load the login page when adding an account. [Test case] Open the accounts dialog and attempt to add a new twitter account. [Regression potential] Very low, the change is required in order to load the authentication panel for adding an account. Without the fix it doesn't load at all, just displaying a line of text stating that SSL is required. Ubuntu 12.04.4 Adding a Twitter account from gwibber does not open the twitter authorization page. Twitter now only accepts SSL connections. After inspecting the code on gwibber-service-twitter files i found the problem. File /usr/share/gwibber/plugins/twitter/gtk/twitter/__init__.py Line 78 and 144 - Needs to be "https" where it states "http" File /usr/share/gwibber/plugins/twitter/__init__.py Line 401 - Needs to be "https" where it states "http" Editing these files with the previous fix makes adding a twitter account working again.
