***UPDATE*** 1/15/2010
It’s been a while since I’ve tested the whole V&V with pidgin but I remember that installing these packages did not fix my problem. Still had issues with V&V working on one end and not the other, the suddenly stopping. It has a was to go. Maybe these have become more part of farsight2 now though who knows.
A few of us in the ##slackware channel have been working on getting voice and video to work with the latest pidgin release. However, so far most of our efforts have been in vain. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. I can never send the request and get it to work however others can send to me just fine. I’ve tried all sorts of things on my end, including opening up the whole “world” to the inside of my network… Still nada.
Saw that farsight2 required gupnp-igd. Here are all the packages I’ve build to SBo standards.
They must be built in this order.
