I just saw that there was a new release of pidgin-facebookchat, a plugin for purple based IMs. The question remains though if we believe it's useful to continue providing this plugin, as facebook changed their rules and is now reachable using regular XMPP [0]. Explanation on how to configure various IMs is available as well [1]
Empathy now uses the XMPP way to let people connect to facebook. But I guess that as long as pidgin doesn't make it easy to configure a facebook account via XMPP, the plugin might still be useful.
Just had a look at this plugin, and considering that I can't find a bug report that it's not working I think nobody uses it :) it actually fails to load due to -Wl,-as-needed, which of course does not fail on a library, as it could well be that the main app does link the dependency. Nevertheless, nobody in the chain seems to link in json-glib and as such the module fails to load (at least on my machine). So actually: does ANYBODY use this plugin?
