Title:
  Re-enable friends-service for Unity-7 until a viable option is
  available(Xenial)

Status in friends package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Friends-service was disabled during Utopic cycle for new social app
  integration on Unity8. But Unity-8 social app is still not very usable
  on desktop & Unity 8 is yet to get a working "desktop" mode.

  This results Unity-social-lens & friends-app (now depreciated)
  useless. (bug #1383681, bug #1384164)

  Please re-activate friends-service so that it can work with unity-
  social-lens....until a viable option is available or until Unity 8 is
  adopted on desktop.
