Title:
  Empathy not included, but Docs says so.

Status in ubuntu-docs package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The official documentation lists Empathy as the default IM client, but
  in fact, it's only available in the universe repository, and certainly
  not installed by default.

  https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-help/net-chat-empathy.html

  ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ empathy
  The program 'empathy' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
  sudo apt install empathy
  You will have to enable the component called 'universe'
  ubuntu@ubuntu:~$

  In the lower-right corner of that page, it says "To report errors in
  this documentation, file a bug.". I clicked the link for "file a bug"
  and it led me here. According to the included search features while
  filing the bug, I'm the first person to report this.

  
  Description:	Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
