The KDE Telepathy packages are ktp-*. I don't like that naming either but
it's what upstream uses so that's what Fedora uses.

KDE Telepathy is the preferred instant messenger although Kopete is still
available (just not installed by default). KDE Telepathy should be
installed by default and should show up in your system tray (it's a round
symbol). If it's not there you can add it in the system tray settings. The
account settings should be accessible from both that system tray icon and
in system settings under IM Settings I believe...
