[Bug 490546] [NEW] Installing Pidgin wipes out my Empathy account settings

[Duncan Lithgow]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

I got annoyed with empathy so thought I'd go back to pidgin while i try
to calm down...

But once pidgin was installed I wanted to check something so I started
empathy, but now empathy is asking me to import my settings from pidgin.
And when I start pidgin it has all the settings without ever asking me
to import anything... nice for pidgin but not for empathy.
