it again.

Title:
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xe1 in position 0:
unexpected end of data
Status in Gwibber:
Incomplete
Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gwibber
According to bug 530195 the problems in Gwibber should have been fixed
in 2.30.1, but no such luck. Both the Facebook and Twitter support are
broken, rendering Gwibber useless for me.
I just upgraded from Karmic to Lucid. I now have Gwibber 2.30.1
running on my system, and things have gone from bad to worse. Whereas
previously it was just Facebook that was working only sporadically,
Twitter has now stopped working for me as well.
I had a Flickr account, a Facebook account and a Twitter account
configured in Gwibber, yet the Message screen remains completely
empty. No Twitter or Facebook messages are displayed, even after
manually selecting Refresh. On the Home screen the only things that
are displayed are Flickr photos, and Twitter messages that are
@directed at me.
I've attached a log file of a gwibber -d run. As you can see it
complains that the com.Gwibber.Accounts and com.Gwibber.Streams
services are not not provided by any service files. That sounds bad.
I have already tried deleting every Gwibber-related settings directory
and cache directory I could find, but none of it made any difference.
I also tried removing and re-adding my accounts (during which I
discovered that it is actually impossible to add a Facebook account
anymore! I'll file a separate bug for that), but that made no
difference either.
