[Bug 509866] Re: [lucid] empathy window resizes while typing in IRC

[Omer Akram]

I have added the workaround in the description of the bug report

** Description changed:

  As stated in the title.
  
  To reproduce:
  
  * Join an IRC channel (may be the same for MSN/Yahoo, etc)
  * Type a long message (longer than the window)
  
  The input box does not open vertically as you would expect, but resizes
  the entire chat window.
  
- Ubuntu Lucid alpha 2 (19 Jan 2009 updates).

+ Workaround: For any one facing this, the workaround is to not let the username of any contact in the IRC, MUC ellipsized i.e. strech contact list if you have to.
