[Bug 97676] Re: xchat-gnome doesn't reauthenticate to nickserv when reconnecting

 

Confirmed under Oneiric Oncelot 11.10.
It's very annoying: when I resume from suspend to RAM, xchat-gnome does not re-authenticate, and I can't join channels that require authentication.

Title:
  xchat-gnome doesn't reauthenticate to nickserv when reconnecting

Status in GNOME frontend to the popular xchat IRC client:
  New
Status in “xchat-gnome” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xchat-gnome

  xchat correctly reconnects to servers when it loses and reestablishes
  its network connection.  However, it doesn't reauthenticate to
  nickserv when doing this.  It does authenticate correctly when first
  starting up.

  This is annoying because freenode will discard private messages from
  unauthenticated users, and this is not very visible in xchat because
  the error comes into the server's tab, not the tab where the message
  was sent.
