[Bug 970885] Re: Empathy 3.4 and pidgin-skype
Followed the instructions in comment #13. It works. So basically it is a problem of updating the package. I have added the tag needs-packaging. ** Tags added: needs-packaging -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/970885 Title: Empathy 3.4 and pidgin-skype To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/skype4empathy/+bug/970885/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 970885] Re: Empathy 3.4 and pidgin-skype
I should add something on my comment #13. All I know is that, before making libskype64.so and libskype_dbus64.so, telepathy would not create a skype account. When I coppied the two files in /usr/lib/purple-2/, there were no such files before, only libskype.so and libskype_dbus.so. Kopete worked ok with skype. So I might have been wrong, and what I did hasn't got to do with this bug.

This also affects telepathy. Without commit revision 629 upstream, telepathy cannot create a skype account with telepathy-haze. Actually it shows a skype option under "telepathy create account.. other" but the window is empty and an error is produced on pressing OK. I installed the libskypeso64.so and make libskype_dbus64.so by: svn checkout http://skype4pidgin.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ skype4pidgin-read-only cd skype4pidgin-read-only/ sudo apt-get install libpurple-dev kate Makefile remove -pc- from compiler in first lines, add add the following to the GLIB_CFLAGS in the make file: -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include/ -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dbus-1.0/include/ make libskype64.so make libskype_dbus64.so sudo cp sudo cp *so /usr/lib/purple-2/ Now texting almost works (some lines are missed) and voice/audio cannot be called, but this might be a telepathy bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/970885 Title: Empathy 3.4 and pidgin-skype To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/skype4empathy/+bug/970885/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 970885] Re: Empathy 3.4 and pidgin-skype
I traced down the problem to one single call to the function "g_thread_init()" inside the package "pidgin-skype". As of the official glib documentation [1], the function is not needed anymore and it is deprecated from version 2.32 on, and apparently is disabled when telepathy-haze and empathy try to load the plugin. I'm attaching a patch that comments out the call to g_thread_init. As far as I have tested it seems to work fine.
