Without a little documentation / explanation, the connection between empathy and QQ is a little tenuous, don't you think? apt-cache search qq returns empathy, but not pidgin. I would think under the circumstances either both should, or both should not, advertise QQ support? http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/13193 says "We have decided to discontinue support of the QQ protocol in libpurple and Pidgin as of version 2.8.0." I have in fact recently found this unofficial Pidgin QQ plugin https://code.google.com/p/libqq-pidgin/ that works on Debian testing right out of the Ubuntu PPA and I am using it right now. It would be nice if this found it's way into the Debian archive and into the hands of more people, there are hundreds of millions (no exaggeration) of QQ users in China, and these days significant numbers of them are Ubuntu (and thus Debian) users. As it stands the plugin is very hard to find and get installed. FYI, Clayton -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
