[Bug 668925] [NEW] Removing a Contact in Empathy Deletes It from the Gmail Contact Manager

[Juan C Nuno]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

I removed a Google Talk contact from Empathy. And I found out that it
was deleted entirely from the Gmail Contact Manager. My intent was for
them to not show up in the Empathy contact list, not to delete their
phone number, mailing address, and who knows what else from Gmail. Data
was lost. I'm very sure Pidgin does the right thing in this case.
