Hi all,

I apologize for the late response to this message. When it was sent I
was on haitus.

I am a co-maintainer for emacs-telega upstream along with Evgeny
Zajcev. Currently the functionality for VoIP is broken, and has been
disabled in the emacs-telega package for the time being. However, I
believe you have patched a bug with the libtgvoip package that caused
erroneous linkage to the system libraries on foreign distributions
causing a runtime issue with the telega server. So, I will investigate
your patch, and apply it so that when the time comes and VoIP
functionality is re-enabled we can prevent this issue!

Thank you,

I will forward this along to Evgeny as well.

Brett Gilio
