[Pkg-telepathy-maintainers] Bug#475956: gstcodecs.conf makes empathy voip fail due to "no valid candidates", removing it lets it work

[Diego Escalante Urrelo]

Package: libfarsight0.1-3
Version: 0.1.27-1
Severity: serious

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

Using debian sid to call another debian sid, I was unable to connect
both machines using empathy voip until I removed the mentioned file.
I don't have the exact error at hand now (you might note I'm reporting
from not a debian machine), but I guess you appreciate a heads up on
this issue.

If you cannot reproduce I'll try to get such thing, but basically both
stream-engines couldn't agree on a codec, no matter they both where
using the same version of everything and that the mentioned missing
plugins (like theora or speex) where correctly installed in the system.
