           Summary: telepathy-sofiasip deb package is not easy to find
                    under debian and ubuntu
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: sofiasip
        AssignedTo: mikhail.zabaluev at nokia.com
        ReportedBy: emmanuel at engelhart.org
         QAContact: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org


I'm a new and really satisfied user of telephathy-sofiasip with empathy on
ubuntu.

The problem I want to report is that it is not trivial to find it:

* Package is not installed per default (should be IMO, but I understand the
counter arguments)

* If you make a search (with apt-cache or in the software center with "sip",
the package won't be given as a result.

* If you make a search (with apt-cache or in the software center with "sip
empathy", the package won't be given as a result.

... So there is no simply way to get empathy working with SIP if you ignore
that it exists such a package and that its exact name is "telephathy-sofiasip".

I propose:

* Installing telephathy-sofiasip per default with empathy

AND/OR

* Modifying the package description to get it by searching for "sip" and "sip
empathy".
