    64 You'll also need this package, which needs to be compiled from source, and it builds "out of the box" on FC9. It may be a good idea to remove the 'farsight' package if possible, to avoid confusion/conflicts.

    6767
    6868You have to use FC9+ because otherwise the gstreamer base package is too old to support the farsight2 package above, and rebuilding it is impractical because things like mplayer, totem and all other multimedia stuff might be killed by that.
     69
     70Because the Pidgin configure script additions for FARSIGHT/GSTREAMER only look at files available to the
     71"pkg-config" command, and don't use the normal library search pattern to find them, you need to make sure that the following fix is applied (or similar for future farsight2 versions?):
     72
     73ln -s /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/farsight2-0.10.pc /usr/lib/pkgconfig/farsight2-0.10.pc
     74
     75That gets ./configure to recognise both GSTREAMER and FARSIGHT as per above.
     76
     77So configure with:
     78
     79./configure --enable-gnutls=no
     80
     81And then "make && make install" as normal.

    8194./configure --enable-gnutls=no

    83 CONFIGURE SCRIPT.
    84 
    85 The configure script additions for FARSIGHT/GSTREAMER only look at files available to pkg-config, and don't use the normal library search pattern to find them. This could be improved in the configure script eventually, but here's a possible workaround:
    86 
    87 ln -s /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/farsight2-0.10.pc /usr/lib/pkgconfig/farsight2-0.10.pc
    88 
    89 [ This links the custom-installed pkg-config info for your farsight2 version where Fedora can find it by default ]
