+Empathy Accounts Dialog Won't Launch
+====================================

+
+I am currently working on a blog post on how to build a non-linux user
+friendly-ish laptop (something similar to Ubuntu in software sets) using Arch
+Linux (I know, not exactly the best of ideas). In this process, I installed
+Empathy, a multi-medium instant messenger. When I tried to add an account
+however, I ran into a strange issue that gave me very ambiguous errors (which I
+unfortunately forgot to copy). After searching around, I stumbled upon
+https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=96918[this] forum thread that solved
+my problem. The issue is that in Arch Linux, installing Empathy doesn't
+automagically install telepathy, a framework for real time conversation (the
+project page can be found http://www.ohloh.net/p/telepathy[here]). To fix this
+issue, we simply need to install telepathy.
+
+----
+pacman -S telepathy
+----
+
+And with that, give Empathy a reboot
+(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8_Kfjo3VjU[three times]). I found
+unfortunately however that Empathy has a process that likes to hang behind even
+after quitting the application. Just run an ol' *ps -ef | grep empathy* and
+kill the pid and you should be golden.
