Stop trying to get "gtk-autojoin" as a string from chat rooms in the buddy list. This field is a boolean, and has been since at least 2004. It looks like it was a boolean even before then, too... For some reason Nathan added this in revision d7d95551eb1d08f00bf41b6c742180ffd18bb525 with the comment: "another one of those horrible hacks that I plan to remove in 6 months or so" This causes this warning to be logged when right clicking on any chat room where you have previously had auto-join checked, but it is now unchecked: "(09:26:22) g_log: purple_blist_node_get_string: assertion purple_value_get_type(value) == PURPLE_TYPE_STRING' failed"
