[Bug 797228] Re: Lack of SIP support after installation

 

Hi Marcin,

WFM on Debian Lenny after upgrading from 2.26 to 2.30.2.

However, I can confirm your findings on either 2.26 (shipped with Debian Lenny) or 2.28 (shipped with KNOPPIX 6.2 which is quite identical in architecture of Debian distro).
Even though my Sofia package was correctly installed and its command-line utilities were working and showed no errors, Empathy ignored *everything* SIP.

Seems neither version before 2.30 has working SIP support, whilst it
worked a treat after upgrading to 2.30.2 (from Debian Squeeze).

Title:
  Lack of SIP support after installation

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “empathy” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  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.
