The problem was largely based on the fact that we support both Pidgin
and Empathy. So if someone configured Empathy once, we'd end up
starting. We couldn't detect what someone "really wanted" with regards
to their IM application so we did it poorly. Since both are technically
supported (but Empathy is default) in the Lucid cycle, I still don't
believe that we can make a reasonable choice here.
