           Summary: CMs with legacy ContactList channels (and not the
                    ContactGroups D-Bus API) won't auto-create group with
                    ContactManager::addContactsToGroup()
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: tp-qt4
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Connection Managers with legacy ContactList channels won't automatically create
a non-existant group while Tp::ContactManager::addContactsToGroup() with such
group is called.

Relevant IRC conversation:
[18:36:51] <mck182> oggis_: will Tp::ContactManager::addContactsToGroup()
create the group if it does not exist yet?
[18:38:47] <oggis_> for old-skool ContactList channels, no, sadly
[18:38:58] <oggis_> this might be a bug in tp-qt4, if it does that with the new
Roster D-Bus API
[18:39:34] <oggis_> hrrrrm
[18:39:45] <oggis_> yes, for "new" CMs it is auto created
[18:41:00] <oggis_> in your code, please assume that it does - the old CMs
(none at this point, except perhaps butterfly?) will be fixed by fixing the
tp-qt4 bug
