#212886 — Confounding behaviour of Empathy.

The Contacts List in Empathy notifies in bold letters, "You haven't 
added any contacts yet".  Meanwhile the "Add Contact" button is pale 
grey; disabled.

I guess others have encountered this connundrum.  Anyone have a solution?

Thanks,                 ... Peter E.

That goes beyond confounding; it's downright frustrating.

Have you installed any of the "recommended" protocol packages (like
'telepathy-gabble', for instance)? If not, this might provide support
for the justifiability of the default installation of recommends.

BTW, am I dreaming or are you using a mail client that hasn't been
maintained since the year 2000? Or am I getting that wrong somehow?

I looked here:

and read there
