Images in conversation are repeated three times #195

Recently, images that have been sent in conversations are displaying three times in the pidgin chat window.

They do not "trip-licate" in the native hangouts interface.

Yep. It's a right pain in the button. Thanks for opening the issue :)

Adding that this seems to be an issue across devices, all running the latest purple-hangouts, how very strange since sending images is fine and only displays one.

I'm suspecting that we're getting sent the same message three times with the same timestamp/id and being expected to de-dup, but I haven't yet managed to capture a debug log when receiving an image 3 times.

If someone else were able to get a debug log as it's happening, that would help sort it out sooner :)

Okay, I had my friend send me a photo, and it only came through twice this time, here is the debug log from right before, to a little after:

Also, interestingly, I asked other people to send me photos after, and each of those came through only once, so it's not even consistently broken...
