[Bug 713893] [NEW] Empathy can't set avatars in MSN

[Wayne Myers]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

Unable to set avatar in MSN.

It appears momentarily to work via the GUI, but on closing and reopening
the dialogue box, the set avatar disappears. Friends on MSN do not see
the set avatar.

This is a pretty showstopping bug for the casual Ubuntu user; IM
functionality is central to their user experience and being unable to
set the avatar of their choice is a major problem.
