[Bug 1594193] [NEW] KDE Telepathy should not be installed by default as it is not developed anymore

[Marcin Sągol]

Public bug reported:

As we can read in this blog post http://martys.typepad.com/blog/2016/06
/new-maintainers-wanted-kde-telepathy-kaccounts-plasma-notifications-
and-others.html (it was also posted on ML), KDE Telepathy is not
developed for a long time and now also need to maintainer to just keep
it incurrent state. It has also some bugs that makes some services it
offers to be broken.

I think Kubuntu should drop KDE Telepathy from metapackage. If any user
needs it, he should install it manually. We shouldn't use by defautl
software that is not developed and might be left unmaintained some day.

** Affects: kubuntu-meta (Ubuntu)
