           Summary: Can not connect to ICQ: Version too old
           Product: kopete
           Version: 0.12.7
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: ICQ and AIM Plugins
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: diafero at arcor.de


Version:           0.12.7 (using KDE 3.5.10)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

When I try to connect to my ICQ account, I get an error saying that the ICQ
version of my client is too old and I have to upgrade. Things still worked
about 10 hours ago (at 10 AM UTC+1), and now (7:30 PM UTC+1) I get that error.
I already googled and searched this bug database but could not find a report.
It seems the same has already happened before and people were advised to change
their kopeterc file. I did that and choose
Major=6
Minor=5
as version number (the URL which ICQ sends and I got via Wireshark links to ICQ
client 6.5). But Kopete seems to ignore that, and when it quits, it overwrites
the config file with the old values.
Is there any way to make Kopete properly connect with ICQ?

I am using Kubuntu 8.04 and the Kopete which is packaged in there (0.12.7, KDE
3.5.10). The same account works fine with ICQ2Go.
