empathy-0.12 has broken python lib installation, which also fails multilib-stict. This is becasue is uses `pyversion` in the Makefile.am to figure out where to install the libs (pyversion doesn't exist on any of my installs) and uses $(prefix) to install the libs, rather than exec prefix. Patch will be attached.
Created attachment 129379 [details, diff] Use python automake to configure python install dirs Use the standard python automake macros to configure where to install. This requires rerunning automake; separate patch attached for that.

I've forwarded this to upstream also.
Thanks. I was going to do it myself, but hadn't gotten to it yet.
Your patch is upstream (http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/empathy?view=revision&revision=278). Lets put it into our tree.
Fixed in 0.12-r1. Thanks for your help.
