[Pkg-telepathy-maintainers] Bug#463243: empathy does not start with the --no-connect option

[Zoho Vignochi]

Package: empathy
Version: 0.21.5.2-1
Severity: normal

I have empathy set to start for my gnome desktop from system -> preferences -> 
sessions with the line: empathy --no-connect. After the recent upgrade empathy 
no longer starts. If I do not pass the --no-connect option then it will start 
up and behave as normal.
