 I'm testing with 0.7.0. No buddies on the mesh view and no telepathy-
 gabble.log is created.

 The presence service log shows that the getDevices call is failing (the
 method has been renamed to GetDevices apparently). It looks like the
 network manager Dbus interface changed quite a bit, because getProperties
 is not working anymore either.

 As a quick workaround:

 {{{

 Interesting comment in the code:

 {{{

     """This class, and direct buddy IPv4 address access, will go away
 quite soon"""
 }}}
