I read on Wikipedia that it uses libpurple, but I can't figure out how to connect to other services (like jabber for example). Am I missing something or is the feature just not there anymore?

Clients of libpurple don't have to use all the protocols, or have them as options. Looking at the QuteCom wiki and various documents I could find, it looks like they're using libpurple for specific backend/frontend handling and their client doesn't support other protocols.

Have you tried connecting to QuteCom's backend using Empathy?

    From a quick search for ICQ/Jabber in the bug tracker, it looks like it should work or at least have worked at some time. Unfortunately I got no feedback at #qutecom. – htorque Jan 08 '11 at 10:26
  • all the links I could find recently indicated that qutecom should work with other protocols as did wengo. I'll try IRC and see if I get anything, if not I'll just have to accept this as the answer :P – RolandiXor Jan 08 '11 at 10:50

Qutecom requires you to be signed into your SIP account before you can connnect to other services (The abiltity to use it to chat with other services is a secondary feature).
