[Pkg-telepathy-maintainers] Bug#757129: telepathy-salut: Fails to send message on IPv6-only system

Package: telepathy-salut
Version: 0.8.1-1
Severity: important
Tags: ipv6

On a fresh Debian 7.6 install on a mesh network with only IPv6
link-local addressing, the Empathy app fails to send messages to other
contacts advertising IPv6 link-local addresses.

I uninstalled telepathy-gabble and telepathy-haze to be sure the system
wasn't using those transports.

If the remote contact initiates the connection, I can reply.

I've rated the severity 'important' because even with two dual-stack
systems, the IPv6 transport is sometimes chosen, making communication
impossible.
