Public bug reported:

telephony-service integrates with indicator-messages even on systems
which don't have telephony capabilities, such as desktops (I'm guessing
that ubuntu-system-settings caused telephony-service to be ran by D-Bus
activation).

It shouldn't do this - I now have Phone Calls and SMS on my indicator
even though this system can't make those.

Perhaps the solution is to gracefully exit if you detect the system
doesn't have telephony capabilities, but I don't know if that makes
sense given your API, so I would be happy enough if you just avoid
registering with indicator-messages in this case.
