[Ekiga-list] News on debian snapshots

[Eugen Dedu <Eugen Dedu pu-pm univ-fcomte fr>]

Hi all,

News on debian snapshots, starting from this night:

* ekiga is now built with gstreamer support (Julien Puydt would be
grateful if you can test it, even if there are some known problems).

* The AVC plugin is not compiled anymore (the package is still there,
but will be removed soon).  Please tell if you really need it.  It seems
to me that ptlib needs libraw1394-dev v1, but v1 is not available
anymore on debian unstable and very soon in testing either.  Here is the
error I receive with v2 installed:

* dbus support is still disabled as for now.  Please tell me if you need it.

* gnome-config-tool needs a bit updated.
