           Summary: nick names in history of group chat are not displayed
           Product: kopete
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: d.laidig at gmx.de


Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

The history of a jabber groupchat is displayed incorrectly and thereby
completely unusable. The problem is that nick names are not shown except for my
own nick. Instead the name of the groupchat is displayed.

This appears in the history dialog:

20:19:18 room at conference.jabber.ccc.de 
some text
20:20:01 Dani 
some other text

This is the stored XML:
 <msg nick="someNick" in="1" from="room at conference.jabber.ccc.de/someNick"
time="12 20:19:18" >some text</msg>
 <msg nick="Dani" in="0" from="room at conference.jabber.ccc.de/Dani" time="12
20:20:1" >some other text</msg>

So, apparently, all the information needed is available. It looks like kopete
always uses the current nick of the contact (and in this case the groupchat is
the contact) instead of the stored one. For instant messages between two people
this works fine, but for a group chat this obviously fails.

Anyway, why not always use the stored nick name? It's supposed to be a history,
anyway. ;)
