[Bug 435329] Re: Empathy is unusable if indicator applet is not on the panel

[tekstr1der]

Nope. No indicator running whatsoever. But, I've got this working
properly on both installs. Two separate sets of issues made this more
confusing than it needed to be. I apologize.

Physical machine: uninstalled empathy, removed anything under /home
related to empathy, pidgin, haze, purple, mission-control. Reinstalled
empathy. Working as expected now.

Virtual machine: Empathy was being blocked via default port 1863 by the
firewall at work. Fortunately I am the sysadmin. Most IM clients can
dynamically use port 80 these days, so I was a little slow on this.
After waiting about 3-4 minutes from launching empathy, the panel icon
eventually appeared and I could see there was a network problem.

Thanks for staying with me on this.Now, on to actually using this thing.
