I confirm that if I connect the my pc at home, where there aren't proxy, empathy starts to work as soon as I disable proxy system wide. I think that the problem is more serious, because I've noticed that also gnome extension installation (from https://extensions.gnome.org/) doesn't work if I'm using the proxy.
P.S: the proxy address that I'm using is working, because I use it in Firefox -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/997017 Title: Empathy not connecting to Gtalk Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Empathy fails to connect to gtalk on both Google apps accounts and normal gmail accounts. You also cannot create xmpp account with the Gtalk settings. In past versions one could double check the settings under the advanced settings, but these are no longer available. In Natty my gtalk accounts all functioned if I remembered to open Empathy after logging on to my laptop. I also tried to edit /home/vincent/.mission- control/accounts/accounts.cfg but this also fails.
