Title:
  Empathy 'Previous Conversations' window grows wider forever

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.04
  Release:	11.04

  $ apt-cache policy empathy
  empathy:
    Installed: 2.34.0-0ubuntu3
    Candidate: 2.34.0-0ubuntu3
    Version table:
   *** 2.34.0-0ubuntu3 0
          500 http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  
  I'm using "Ubuntu Classic" (gnome 2 with metacity window manager).

  Steps to reproduce:
   1) Run Empathy
   2) Chat to somebody
   3) Right-click on their name in the contact list
   4) Choose "Previous Conversations"
   5) The window grows horizontally until it reaches the right edge of the screen. Then it keeps growing until it reaches the left edge of the screen. Then it keeps growing to the right again. It makes no difference if the window is maximised or not. It still grows forever!

  What I expected to happen:
  The window should open at some size and it should stay that size.

  Thanks.
