something like
/regxpcom:/usr/local/lib/libsqlite3.so.14.0: 
/usr/local/mozilla-firefox/libsqlite3.so.22.1 : WARNING: 
symbol(sqlite3_version) size mismatch, relink your program
can be ignored atm.

i don't use empathy, so no idea if it is broken, the actual error
messages would help.
for ports/package related stuff there is ports@ which might get you a
quicker response.

"not a manual" might point to a "bad" manpage, related to the
mandoc/groff change; nothing to worry about either from a pure user
perspective. the package should have installed fine nevertheless.
