Trying to fit ktp-accounts-kcm

  Hello:

  On my work computer recent move from Jessie to Stretch I noticed a number of 
issues. The one that upset me the most was the inability to use kde-telepathy. 
A lot of packages were already installed, but there was something missing that 
prevented me to use XMPP. I tried then on a computer running sid, I installed 
the kde-telepathy meta-package and I could at least add my XMPP account, 
something I was unable to do on Stretch.

  I discovered binary packages provided by source packages meta-kde-telepathy 
or ktp-accounts-kcm weren't available at Stretch. Being the later the one 
providing the functionality I came across #826356 (merged with #830404). 
Package was dumped from testing late January this year, even the bug was 
reported and a fixed proposed by June last year.

  Anyway I'm attaching some patches that hopefully improves shape of the 
package. Not really a big deal but being a kde-telepathy user I'd like to see 
this in either stretch (surely too late) or eventually stretch-backports.

  Patches are based on current git[0] HEAD. And I thought the best would be to 
release them on behalf of the team, if you disagree, you can apply patch 1/3, 
amend it and then rebase 2 and 3.

  I don't have permission to push on that repository, but if you think this 
deserves it I can follow instructions in that regard. I rebuild packages with 
this changes, installed and testing kde-telepathy these days yet I admit I 
haven't built it in a clean environment, ie: built on my everyday running 
Stretch.

  Sidenote: debian/15.08.3-2 tag is missing in the repo [0]
