nchat doesn't delete messages deleted in other clients

[hseg]

Description:

Whatsapp messages deleted in other clients aren't deleted in nchat.

How to reproduce it:

With an Android device and nchat both linked to the same account, delete a message (only tested with my own messages) from the Android client. The message is not deleted from nchat, nor is it marked in any way (I could accept nchat being conservative here). The converse does work -- deleting from nchat deletes in the Android client.

Environment:

• Version: 5.2.11.r6.gdbfcc3d-1 (i.e. off dbfcc3d)
• OS / distro: Arch Linux 6.11.5-arch1-1

Thanks for reporting. In the Android WhatsApp app are you using Delete for everyone or Delete for me?

I do see the issue when using Delete for me but not when using Delete for everyone from a quick test here.

I am not sure if WhatsApp defines me as ones local device or as "myself" (on all devices), I'll need to check a bit.
