[Bug 1185448] Re: When visiting many profiles (one after the other), sometimes all profile information except avatar are the ones of the previous profile visited

 

OK, after some additional tests, I now found a profile that always
triggers this problem.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1/ [OPTIONAL] Firstly, try to visit any profile (that profile will be the one that will be shown for some information when you'll visit the next profile, else it'll be your profile that'll be partially shown);
2/ Make a search on this profile name in the Search tab: EetR_National

You'll firstly see that, strangely, there's a lot of space after that particular nickname (on Birdie only).
Click on that nickname to visit this profile.
You'll then immediately see the problem: the content is the good one, but every information except the avatar are the ones of the previous profile visited (which includes Name, Nickname, Location, Bio, Tweets/Following/Followers counter).

>> MESSAGE TRIGGERED IN THE LOG IMMEDIATELY AFTER CLICKING ON THAT NICKNAME:
[_LOG_LEVEL_WARN 23:10:09.753968] [Gtk] Failed to set text from markup due to error parsing markup: Error on line 1: Entity did not end with a semicolon; most likely you used an ampersand character without intending to start an entity - escape ampersand as &

"[…] due to error parsing markup […]" ; one day, Birdie will never have
parsing problem again. In any case. Let's build that. :^)

Title:
  When visiting many profiles (one after the other), sometimes all
  profile information except avatar are the ones of the previous profile
  visited

Status in Birdie:
  New

Bug description:
  Have watched many profiles one after the other, and often the profile
  information (except the avatar) are the ones of the previous profile
  visited. This includes Name, Nickname, Location, Bio, etc.

  No problem with the content however (the tweets are the good ones,
  etc.).

  Thought about a problem when fetching profile information (API calls
  limit? don't think so because it happens even when just watching few
  profiles one after the other in fact, and no problem to get the
  content, i.e. the tweets) and Birdie rather uses the ones in its
  cache, which are the ones of the previous profile visited.

  Technical information:
  OS: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS (with Cinnamon)
  Birdie version used: the r244 from the DAILY repository
