** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: empathy
  
  the ubuntu theme shows misleading timestamps for messages in conversations 
from previous days.
  a conversation in empathy with the ubuntu theme enabled would look like this:
  
- "helle darling, please pick up the kids today" - 15:42
+ "darling, please pick up the kids today" - 15:42
  "okay luv, no problem" - 15:29
  
  in this example, the date of the first message can not be determined.
  one may falsely conclude, it was sent on the same day
  
  better would be, to determine wheter a message was sent on the same day, or 
on a different day.
  if the date differs, that information should be included in the message's 
timestamp.
  if the date of the message is TODAY, then the timestamp can omit that 
information safely.
