Just an update re #25 and #32. The Telepathy PPA updates appear to be causing some strangeness for me (some GoogleTalk contacts were always shown as offline when they were online) so, since this is now fixed for the base LTS version, I suggest people revert back to this.
I used ubuntu-tweak to make this painless (as per http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/29584/safely-remove-ppas-and-roll-back- to-stable-versions-in-ubuntu). Otherwise, you need to find the full set of packages installed from the PPA, check the versions in official repos and do manual re-installs to these specific versions (a PITA). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/676828 Title: Contacts does not show up in empathy contact list Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu: Invalid 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).
