Bug#530361: totem-plugins: Instant messenger plugin does not work

[Apelete Seketeli]

Package: totem-plugins
Version: 2.26.2-1
Severity: normal

I have never been able to enable the Instant Messenger Status plugin in Totem.
Whenever I try to it fails with the error:
"Unable to activate plugin Instant Messenger status.
Could not connect to the Galago daemon".

I checked totem-plugins recommanded and suggested package list, and everything is installed on my status.
