          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: contactlist
        AssignedTo: kde-telepathy at kde.org

Version:           git-latest (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

If you install telepathy with it dependencies, it supports only a limited range
of account types. I first thought this would be all until I discovered several
others could be installed through packagemanagement. Many users would not know
this, therefor I suggest to make this easier for users to discover. Add all
possible other contact types to the list of possible account-types even though
there are not installed. 

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
If a user then tries to add for example a skype a contact the users would be
prompted for his password to install the necessary packages. Other
KDE-applications do this too.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.0.0-7-generic
Compiler: gcc
