[Bug 676828] Re: Contacts does not show up in empathy contact list

 

I don't think installing Telepathy is the way to solve the problem.

This bug has been detected and reported in LTS version, and since it has
been confirmed by many users (and seems to be a possible source for the
bug), it should be fixed in LTS version.

I've used Pidgin today and it still works properly so, as Stuart
comments, can be an useful workaround while the bug is beeing fixed.

Title:
  Contacts does not show up in empathy contact list

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

  This mostly happens when empathy starts on ubuntu startup, when
  opening empathy it shows no contacts in a contact list. It does not
  show anything with 'Show offline contacts'. Restarting empathy is the
  only solution that works (sometimes even that doesn't work).
