Package: pidgin
This is regarding this patch in the Debian package:
debian/patches/03_gconf-gstreamer.patchCan you explain why this patch exists in Debian? Currently, Pidgin upstream looks to create a gconfaudiosink under GNOME. If that fails or when not running GNOME, it tries to create an autoaudiosink. Pidgin in Debian (and Ubuntu) uses gconfaudiosink right away. A patch [0] has been submitted upstream to eliminate all this behavior and let playbin do the work for us. I'm looking to determine which is correct and do the same thing everywhere if possible. Thanks, Richard [0] http://developer.pidgin.im/attachment/ticket/5770/0002-Use-real-automatic-method-of-GStreamer-s-playbin.patch
