Open Empathy

Look for the menu (in GNOME 3 the menu appears at the top of the screen
with the name "Empathy", beside the "Activities", instead of in the
Empathy window)

Click to open the menu

Click "Accounts"

Now you should have the "Messaging and VoIP Accounts" window.

Click the "+" icon at the left, bottom corner.

Now it should say "What kind of chat account do you have?"

Click "SIP"

$ ps ax | grep mission-control
 2610 ?        Sl     0:54 /usr/lib/telepathy/mission-control-5

$ kill 2610

Wait a few seconds and then use ps again to see if it came back:

$ ps ax | grep mission-control
27957 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/lib/telepathy/mission-control-5

This background process keeps track of the active connection managers
that can be used when creating now accounts.

Please run bustle while restarting mission-control and see what happens
