Bug Description

Binary package hint: telepathy-stream-engine

telepathy-stream-engine is deprecated and should be removed according to Sjoerd Simons:

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/telepathy/2009-March/003115.html

telepathy-stream-engine was made for internet tables, on a desktop machine it
has always been slightly flakey as it's quite sensitive to the used gstreamer
version and doesn't cope well with error conditions.

We've been moving to farsight2 and telepathy-farsight which are a lot more
reliable then stream-engine ever was. Current empathy development releases
contain these features and should be available from the Ubuntu telepathy PPA
reasonably soon.
