Bug Description
[Impact]
lernid depends on python-webkit, which is deprecated and going
to be removed from the Debian archive. lernid should switch to using
the GObject Introspection bindings for webkit, ideally
gir1.2-webkit2-3.0 for Webkit2 and gtk+3 as upstream has already
dropped WebKit1 (so gir1.2-webkit-1.0 and gir1.2-webkit-3.0 are
likely to be dropped from Debian in the near future).
[Other Info]
As reported at https:/
The developers recommend you port lernid to GTK3 and then build against gir1.2-
There's some additional info at https:/

Did you try connecting to the spanish chatroom set? That seems to be working, as do the parameters to choose other chatrooms. (See the man page). You are probably right that chatroom forwarding is throwing off telepathy, which lernid uses for the IRC connections.
The calendar only tries to present recent and future events.
It's also my understanding that #ubuntu-classroom is defunct. I haven't inquired about #ubuntu-charlas, but I'm not aware of recent use of it.
My last upload was 1/28/16 to change the build for dh-python2.
Lernid may never be used again but I haven't actually abandoned it yet.
I'm don't know anything about the policy for removing programs from universe when they are considered no longer important and I guess that's the issue as your bug report stands now.
