Description
Current behavior:
1- open nchat and select user A chat
2- receive a message on Telegram from user B
3- read it using mobile app, not nchat
4- there's still a * in nchat beside user B
Expected:
The * should disappear when we read the message outside nchat
nchat 4.86

Thanks for reporting a bug. Do you happen to know if this is a recent regression or have you encountered this even before v4.86?
esaaprillia commentedon Jun 7, 2024
I experienced the same problem, telegram messages in the group were not updated. nchat versions 4.86 and 4.50
fulalas commentedon Jun 7, 2024
It's not a new issue, but I'm not sure if it ever worked.
d99kris commentedon Jun 8, 2024
Thanks 👍 I will look into it.

@esaaprillia, thanks for the heads up. But today I noticed this issue also happens with WhatsApp protocol, so this is either a big coincidence or nchat has something to do.

i have tried python-tg same problem too

Hi - thanks for all the inputs. I'm quite certain this is an issue in
nchat(not tdlib). I will look into this bug when I find some time.d99kris commentedon Jun 15, 2024
The bug should be fixed with above commit. The fix only addresses Telegram. I'm not able to reproduce the problem on WhatsApp. Perhaps you can help to report a new bug for WhatsApp if it's reproducible on your side @fulalas.

@d99kris
no found v4.87 or v4.88
d99kris commentedon Jun 15, 2024
Can you please help explain a little bit more, do you mean you cannot update to that nchat version? Are you installing from source or from a package manager (which one)?

d99kris commentedon Jun 15, 2024
Okay, so the fix is only available from git master (
git clone https://github.com/d99kris/nchat) at this point. Then on a quarterly basis I'll be releasing stable versions of nchat. The next quarterly is end of this month.predators46 commentedon Jun 15, 2024
is the master branch version v4.88? this must be known
d99kris commentedon Jun 15, 2024
Yes current master is v4.88.
predators46 commentedon Jun 15, 2024
There should be no need to change version v4.86 if this is an improvement over version v4.86. you should change the version if you release the latest version
d99kris commentedon Jun 15, 2024
Most users install nchat from git master source (like git clone or downloaded tar-ball), and I need a way to identify a particular "snapshot" of the code (tar-balls don't have git commit hash), so I chose to increment the version number for every functional change. So users can use the version number when reporting bugs or asking questions. You can think of the repository having rolling releases (latest git master) and then the Github releases section simply containing tags/releases identified to be more stable.
I know this approach is not common practise for release versioning, but it was chosen for pragmatic reasons.

It's working for me now. Thanks a lot! :)
