Description:
New version of farsight2 brings gst-plugins-good 0.10.29
gst-plugins-bad 0.10.20 as dependencies and this pulls gtk3 + gconf ,... too.

My suggestion is to reduce them and make RTC plugin an opt-depends, so that kopete/pidgin don't need to pull so much gnome stuff. I believe some users will prefer this lighter version.

Thank you,

Tested the patch, seems to work very well so far. I really appreciate keeping the dependencies at minimum!

i changed the dependency to gstreamer0.10-good and gstreamer0.10-bad and added gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins as optdepends
