Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
In Pidgin, using the SIPE-Plugin, attempt to make a video call.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Attempt to make video call: in chat window/contact list select contact and click "voice/video-call"
* What was the outcome of this action?
Setting up video call fails with error mesage "Error with your webcam"
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Video call should be set up correctly
* Possible solution:
This is a known problem documented in the plugins FAQ at https://sourceforge.net/p/sipe/wiki/Frequently%20Asked%20Questions/#video-call-setup-fails-with-the-error-message-error-with-your-webcam
The farstream version included in buster predates the patch mentioned there. Please include the patch or provide a newer version via backports.
* Thanks:
Thank You!
