[Bug 828756] Re: getting "connection is untrusted" warnings

 

Ok, as far as KDE goes, the fix is to remove empathy.  For some reason,
when empathy was installed, the KDE Telepathy stuff was using empathy to
authenticate, and it was failing.  The Gtk error box and non-KDE desktop
notification should have tipped me off sooner, but it wasn't until I
brought up the KWin Special Application Settings for the Gtk "self-
signed certificate" error box and saw that it was from the empathy
process that I made the connection.

After removing empathy, when I tried to connect to GTalk, I got a
kdewallet prompt, clicked Allow Always, and now it works fine.

I don't know why KDE was using empathy when it didn't need to.

Bug description:
  Since updating to Oneiric, empathy is giving me "connection is
  untrusted" warning dialogs. For some reason, it's not verifying the
  certificate properly. For security reasons, this needs to get fixed.
