No, that package is installed.  In fact, the ArchLinux packaging
system installed that implicitly for me when I installed the empathy
package; well actually, I recall adding some telepathy packages
explicitly since they were listed as optional dependencies and at one
point, I got unresolved shared components.  I don't get any errors
like that anymore but I connect to the server iptel.org but it just
keeps ringing.  I don't have anyone to specifically call right now but
the echo and voicebox numbers never answer with Empathy but work fine
with linphone from the console.  If I can't get this figured out soon,
I might try linphone for gnome and just dump empathy.  I can't get
anything else to work with it anyway.  Like I say, dunno if it is
ignorance on my part if empathy is just too complex and junky.
