I'm trying to setup google talk with openSUSE 13.1
I don't see google-talkplugin in the main repos, nor in packman.
I'm running 32-bit openSUSE and I've tried the 32-bit plugin from: https://www.google.com/tools/dlpage/hangoutplugin/download.html but it doesn't work.
That agrees with this bugzilla https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=848834
That bugzilla says that a working google-talkplugin can be downloaded from http://www.teodori.org/repository/utilities/opensuse13.1/current.html.
Does anyone know if that can be trusted? Does it have a reputation (good or bad?). Could malware have been injected, etc.
Why not get it from the source? http://www.google.com/linuxrepositories/ Then there' sno third party intermediary that you have to wonder about... just Google (to wonder about).
That page links to https://www.google.com/tools/dlpage/hangoutplugin
Which links to https://www.google.com/tools/dlpage/hangoutplugin/download.html
Which allows you to download the pluging that works with openSUSE 12.3, but not with 13.1
Am I missing something?
My mistake. I missed the bit about the libudev crash with the Googletalk plugin and openSUSE 13.1. Does the Chrome plugin work in 13.1? https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hangouts/nckgahadagoaajjgafhacjana... Next question, do you need it for voice? or text? If text, you should be able to use Pidgin until the build is fixed on Google's side.
