[Bug 1088775] Re: gwibber does not refresh Facebook feeds

[Ruben Rocha]

There are problems again with gwibber and facebook. The error this time
is that there is no "count" key when receiving the facebook feed:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gwibber/microblog/dispatcher.py", line 81, in run
    message_data = PROTOCOLS[account["service"]].Client(account)(opname, **args)
  File "/usr/share/gwibber/plugins/facebook/__init__.py", line 253, in __call__
    return getattr(self, opname)(**args)
  File "/usr/share/gwibber/plugins/facebook/__init__.py", line 268, in receive
    return [self._message(post) for post in data["data"]]
  File "/usr/share/gwibber/plugins/facebook/__init__.py", line 224, in _message
    m["likes"]["count"] = data["likes"]["count"]
KeyError: 'count'

My solution was to edit the file
/usr/share/gwibber/plugins/facebook/__init__.py and from line 224 to 231
delete any instance of ["count"]. Save file and reboot. The facebook
feed now refreshes and appears in gwibber.

Bug description:
  Since around November 28th, Gwibber stopped updating my Facebook
  feeds. First, I tried to delete my facebook account from online
  accounts and than uninstall and reinstall gwibber. Then, I removed
  ubuntu from facebook app settings after doing all of the above. Then I
  checked my proxy settings, and my proxy is on none. When I open
  gwibber, I see feeds that are 12-13 days old and when I try to
  refresh, it does not do anything. I mean it does not even write
  refreshing... at the bottom of the screen. When I check if gwibber-
  service is running correctly I get no mistake in the terminal. I've
  looked a lot around bugs sections in many sites but none of them had
  an answer.

  Steps to verify this SRU:
  [Test Case]
  Ensure gwibber-service has restarted since the update by either a logout/login or "killall gwibber-service", then verify there is feed data for your facebook account.

  [Regression Potential]
  Regression potential is really low, it simply checks that the dict returned has a key, and if it doesn't use an empty value for the result.
