[Bug 474724] [NEW] Empathy cannot log into any accounts (Ubuntu 9.10)

[RaverWild]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

Empathy cannot log into any of my accounts.

I noticed bug #471878 , which is about MSN account login, but actually
the program cannot login into any accounts. I have about 5 accounts in
Pidgin. Upon installation of the program I imported all of them into
Empathy (passwords were not saved in Pidgin - I always enter them upon
login manually). I tried the accounts to login - MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, Gmail
- I entered my passwords and clicked "enable" checkbox - the program
reported network error. I decided to test same accounts with Pidgin -
all was fine and I logged in, so problem is entirely in Empathy.

Hope you fix it, probably is something small...

System details: Just updated Ubuntu from Jaunty to Koala (9.10) and same
day , the evening using update manager installed Empathy.
