Fix bugs 308871 and 334221: Hardcode dependencies on Gabble and Salut for default XMPP support.


--- NEW FILE empathy-README.ConnectionManagers ---
Empathy is a client built on the Telepathy messaging framework. However, 
without a proper backend (connection manager) installed, it is essentially
useless.

XMPP, as a standardized and unencumbered protocol, is supported by default
through the Gabble (Jabber and GoogleTalk) and Salut (link-local) connection
managers. However, more are available in Fedora which implement other
protocols. They are as follows, listed by their package name:

* telepathy-butterfly: MSN
* telepathy-feed: Galago
* telepathy-idle: IRC
* telepathy-stream-engine: Multimedia streaming

If you wish to us any of these protocols with Empathy, you will need to
install the appropriate package for the connection manager and configure
the account through Empathy's "Accounts" dialog.
