            Bug ID: 348373
           Summary: Server-sent join commands/replies with mismatched
                    masks are silently ignored
           Product: konversation
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: protocol
          Assignee: konversation-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: alex at cluonflux.com

Version 1.6, packaged in Fedora 22

One of my communities is using Slack (https://slack.com/) for its chat system,
but I don't like to keep browser tabs open for stuff like that, so I've been
trying to use their IRC gateway. 

Connecting to the Slack IRC gateway works fine, and I can get a channel list,
but when I try to join a channel (double-clicking on the channel list, typing
"/j foo", "/join #foo", etc.), nothing happens. I opened up the raw log and saw
that the user mask for the server's join line looked like this:

[10:31] >> :arrgh!arrgh at irc.tinyspeck.com JOIN #foo%0A

It turns out the Slack IRC gateway never does an IDENT, it just duplicates the
nick for that part of the mask. Once I changed the ident username in the
Konversation identity dialog, everything started working correctly! Woohoo!

Even though I've found a workaround, I would suggest this is still a bug, since
other clients (X-Chat for example) don't seem to mind.



Reproducible: Always
