So I don't actually know what happened, but I altered the .desktop file of Empathy (I added Skype as a quicklist shortcut) but for some reason, that removed Empathy from the Messaging Menu indicator. So I thought uninstalling and reinstalling Empathy might right everything that was wrong, but now when I try to install I get an error message that says:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
