[ildar]

yesterday the plugin stopped working. Timeline:

1. it crashed
2. restart & connect failed with Wrong version 26 (*)
3. removing tdlib folder fails with API_ID_PUBLISHED_FLOOD (**)

(*) [ 0][t 4][1605725049.798683167][LogEvent.h:212][#1][!NetStatsManager][&version()

I suspect fixing https://github.com/ars3niy/tdlib-purple/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt#L10 might help...

So, those chickens finally came home to roost.

This should be fixed by passing -DSTUFF=AFADBDIyvuCrHF@E@GCC@qAvGus@rIArrGGtIvqC when running cmake. Talking about what it means is technically a violation of Telegram's terms of service.

Would rasing tdlib version help?

[ars3niy]

At this point, no. The "Wrong version" message is normally caused by trying to downgrade tdlib, and fixed by removing tdlib data which you did. At that point it's no longer a tdlib issue.

Привет, Арсений! Thank you. That helped. I am going to build and pack this fixed version to ALTLinux, see https://packages.altlinux.org/ru/sisyphus/srpms/tdlib-purple. Do you mind? If you want, please write privately. P.S. Is there a chat or well-known place to discuss tdlib-purple ?

Hello @ildar!
Yes, there is a Telegram group to discuss about tdlib-purple.

[ars3niy]

Yes, it's similar to what I'm doing already with the binary packages I'm building.

You can have a look at my RPM spec for inspiration https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:ars3n1y/tdlib-purple
