If empathy didn't have a hard requires on some of it's plugins, like
telepathy-haze (which pulls in libpurple) that would drop 20MB or more.
IMO, the only hard-requires for empathy should probably be
telepathy-gabble (XMMP) & telepathy-salut (local-link XMMP), the rest we
should give a hard look at what we want to use a default in comps to
reduce some of the bloat.
