Bug Description

Binary package hint: empathy

Translating Empathy I had some troubles understanding the following strings, it would be great if a comment could be provided for other translators to clarify these strings:

"Show incoming messages in the messaging menu"
Located in ../src/empathy-preferences.ui.h:21

The "messaging menu" is the envelope-shaped icon in Ubuntu, located in the Indicator-applet

"Initially select given account (eg, gabble/jabber/foo_40example_2eorg0)"
Located in ../src/empathy-accounts.c:221

This is a command line option for `empathy-accounts`, to open the "Messaging and VoIP Accounts" dialog with the given account selected. To get the account-id you have to run `mc-tool list`

Thanks in advance, feel free to use my explanation of these strings if you think they are good enough
Regards

Empathy has migrated butterfly logs

And
Whether Empathy has migrated butterfly logs.
Located in ../data/empathy.schemas.in.h:60

Is also unclear. It refers to a key that is set when Empathy has migrated butterfly logs, so that it doesnt attempt to migrate them every time one logs into msn.
