Are you saying that in this message <message> <body>?OTR:123123123</body> </message> the recipient is expected to decrypt 123123123 and treat the result as plain text, but in this message <message> <html xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/xhtml-im'> <body xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'> ?OTR:456456456 </body> </html> the recipient is expected to decrypt 456456456 and treat the result as HTML? Or what? There must be a rule you can use to determine whether the decrypted content is text/plain or text/html. "Text that may contain HTML" is not a well-formed concept - either the message "<" is a 4 character reply to "remind me how you escape < in HTML?", or it's a single U+003C LESS- THAN SIGN character. It can't be both. It is entirely possible that the rule is "do whatever Pidgin does", which in practice probably means it's always treated as HTML - that's what my review comments assume. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296867 Title: empathy needs to support OTR encryption To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/empathy/+bug/296867/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
