Comment 42 for bug 255307

I tested the solution posted in reply #39..it seems to work so far.
Notice that :
- I had to reboot to make empathy "detect its new envoronment"
- the msn account was gone, I added it and it worked instantly.
- past conversations are not visible anymore. They are still present though in /home/<user>/.local/share/Empathy/logs.

cheers
