Okay
I think I found out reason of problem
I've been using bridge network interface for some KVM reason. networkManager seems like don't support this type of connection in 14.04 LTS so I set up network in /etc/network/interfaces and did not pay attention to networkManager's applet in tray long time before december 1, when I got trouble with connections. I was left without any communications and I has taken desperate measures. it was a real shamanism today. 
I booted and got working network connection br0, then I 'connected' eth0 by networkManager's applet. eth0 was configured by my own DHCP server. and  by this crooked way I use fully configured br0 and eth0 and then kopete is working. it is absolutely abnormal. I do think this kopete's method of checking network connection is really bad. 
shortly speaking if networkManager's applet indicates that eth0 unplugged then kopete do not connect anyway. even if connection via brige works fine. if networkManager believes that eth0 is plugged then Kopet (and psi, pidgin, even telepathy) work perfect. did not work anything of them without networkManager.  what is a special way that all of it was worked before system update on december 1 I really do not know and it makes me crazy

if anyone will be able to confirm this bug I will get satisfaction at
least

something aboute networkManager and bridge
