           Summary: select preferred Client to handle incoming messages

    Classification: Unclassified

Not 100% sure I'm posting this in the right place, but from the few hits I got
on Google, looks like it's the most probable.

I usually run gnome (3) on fedora (17), and decided to try and install KDE too.
In the process, the ktp packages got installed, and now, when I receive an
incoming message (at least text, over google protocol) ktp-text-ui is launched,
instead of the usual empathy dialog ui.

I couldn't find a way to set a preferred handler when receiving a new message,
neither in dbus nor in empathy/telepathy, and a google search only gave me a
cryptic "Setting a prerfferedHandler on ensure_channel will solve this." on an
ubuntu bug, on launchpad from last year.

So, is there a way to set a preferred handler ? Removing ktp-text-ui would
work, but I would like to keep it, while getting to chat in empathy when in a
Gnome session, and in KDE-telepathy in a KDE session.

Steps to reproduce
1. Install KDE (and ktp) and Gnome-shell on the same computer
2. Connect to google talk using Empathy
3. Receive an incoming text message
4. ktp-text-ui is launched
