Bug Description

Friends-service was disabled during Utopic cycle for new social app integration on Unity8. But Unity-8 social app is still not very usable on desktop & Unity 8 is yet to get a working "desktop" mode.

This results Unity-social-lens & friends-app (now depreciated) useless. (bug #1383681, bug #1384164)

Please re-activate friends-service so that it can work with unity-social-lens....until a viable option is available or until Unity 8 is adopted on desktop.

As Xenial is going to use Unity 7 by default, it would be nice if this is enabled for Xenial release.
