My contacts who run yahoo messenger in windows set their accounts to
show "idle" after so many minutes.  Empathy continues to show their
status as "Available".  Pidgin correctly shows them as "idle" plus the
number of minutes idle. They can select their "Busy" and  "Invisible"
statuses and those do display correctly in Empathy. It appears to be
only the idle status from Yahoo that does not register correctly with
Empathy.

Title:
  Empathy shows Yahoo users as "Available" rather than actual status

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  For the past few months "Offline" and "Available" are the only
  statuses I have seen for Yahoo users. Pidgin shows the correct status
  "away", "busy" etc. .
