I just found out facebook no longer supports xmpp interface, and it's
using its own api [1].

However I found a plugin for pidgin on github [2].  It seems to be
working fine for me.

If anyone interested, the following PKGBUILD is also working for me:

I'm not using it but a quick aur search found this:
https://aur4.archlinux.org/packages/purple-facebook-git/
If you think whatever you are using is better, you could publish it to
aur(4)

hello all,
This is bad news.
Pidgin and FB won't work now it seems.
So if I go to facebook.com will I be able to chat using Orca?
I never tired this before so wished to have a word or 2 from experienced people.
Happy hacking.
