Branch: pkgsrc-2010Q4, Version: 2.30.3, Package name: empathy-2.30.3, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Empathy consists of a rich set of reusable instant messaging widgets,
and a GNOME client using those widgets. It uses Telepathy and
Nokia's Mission Control, and reuses Gossip's UI. The main goal is
to permit desktop integration by providing libempathy and libempathy-gtk
libraries. libempathy-gtk is a set of powerful widgets that can be
embeded into any GNOME application.

* Powerful theme engine for chats

* Adding new contacts and viewing/editing contact information
