Description of problem:
Since Jun 11 2011 Empathy cannot connect to ICQ network. A "Network Error" message is displayed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
empathy-2.32.2-1

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create an ICQ account in Empathy
2. Launch Empathy
3. Get a "Network Error" message

Actual results:
A "Network Error" message without any further details or log records.

Expected results:
Successful connection (as it was before Jun 11)

Additional info:
F14 with all updates. The issue is not related to system update.

In similar situations before (e.g., Nov 2010) switching SSL off helped. Pidgin can still connect, but only with SSL disabled.

Empathy does not have an option to disable SSL or to ignore SSL errors (it seems there was one, but is now gone? Or patched-off Fedora?). Setting "use-client-login" to "false" via mc-tool does not help. Empathy no longer recognizes "use-ssl" option via mc-tool.
