[Pkg-telepathy-maintainers] Bug#1018122: RM: empathy -- RoQA; unmaintained; incompatible with GNOME 43

[Jeremy Bicha]

Package: ftp.debian.org
X-Debbugs-CC: empathy at packages.debian.org

An app can't link against both libsoup2.4 and libsoup3 simultaneously.
empathy depends on libsoup2.4 but it also depends on several libraries
that will be switching to libsoup3 to finish packaging GNOME 43 for Debian 12.

There is no longer an upstream for empathy. Empathy was archived more
than a year ago which means bug reports, translation updates, and even
bugfixes are no longer being accepted. [1]
