[Bug 797228] [NEW] Lack of SIP support after installation

[Marcin Juszkiewicz]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

Empathy package recommends several Telepathy plugins which add support
for many IM protocols. But after instalation I was unable to add SIP
account (which was main reason of installing empathy).

So I started checking why...

For SIP to work telepathy-sofiasip package needs to be installed. It is
listed as dependency only in telepathy-core which is dependency of
telepathy-gnome. It is not recommended by Empathy nor even suggested.

I wonder how many users of Empathy in Ubuntu complain about lack of SIP
support.
