I had installed the icq account plugin. I do not remember where I got this from, I guess from the OpenRepos.net

However, it just stop working with 2.0.4.13 Does anyone know about or have similar behavior?

After each update, there are running away my working chat protocols, first skype, now icq...

Yep, your app would likely have been from Openrepos, from author Coderus. The app is no longer on his repo, probably best to contact him directly.

Is the app still showing in Accounts?

markkyboy, do you know, how to contact him directly? I could not found a way to pm people here...

well, you could message him from here, by simply forming a sentence contains "@coderus - please help me fix my ICQ problem" - you're correct, there is no 'pm' here on TJC, but adding that @ symbol before a username is similar.

@coderus, my ICQ account dosen't work since update to 2.0.4.13. Do you plan to further update this? If not, is there a place where the sources could be found, would be a good starting point to begin coding for sailfish. I also would like to create a skype-accunt module.

I have used ICQ plugin for 2or 3 years. But recently it was stopped working. I suspect that ICQ changed the protocol. Try to download the oficial client from Yandex.store or similar store. ICQ is writing history on server. So, you could restore it.

@coderus, do you plan to investigate further development in the icq extension?

@Fedorka my desktop client (pidgin) still works without updates. I think 2.0.4.13 breaks some things.

something has changed in 2.0.4, maybe problems in telepathy-haze, i did not investigated a lot.
