Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: empathy
This is an ergonomic problem.
It is not possible to change the status from "offline" to "available" directly
from the notification area menu.
You have to select "Instant messaging" first in the "messages" menu ("envelope"
icon ) : By the way, this is already counter intuitive, as everything about
instant messaging should be in the instant messaging menu (speach bubble
icon).. right ?.
So this shows empathy itself, then you can set the status to available
from there.
In all other cases, You don't need to show empathy itself.
You can just change your status from the quick menu.
I think this should become consistent.
