[Bug 433714] [NEW] initial empathy account wizard does not offer IRC as an account

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Binary package hint: empathy

In both karimc alpha 5 and alpha 6, and the Lucid daily image from 2-24,
when starting the empathy IM client, the wizard that starts gives a list
of accounts available to create.  In this list, IRC is missing.  I've
seen this both on the live environment and a clean install.

The workaround is to exit and go to Edit -> Accounts (F4) and Add an
account.  IRC is listed in this location. In Lucid, you have to get past
the wizard (basically set up one account) this work around.

A new user that installs Karmic, may want to get to IRC #ubuntu channel,
and this gives the initial perception that they cannot accomplish this.
