Dear maintainer,
telegram-desktop FTBFS with many unresolved references:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtg_owt.a(socket_address.cc.o): in
function `rtc::SocketAddress::FromString(absl::debian5::string_view)':
(.text+0x1320): undefined reference to `absl::debian5::string_view::find(char,
unsigned long) const'
/usr/bin/ld: (.text+0x13f8): undefined reference to
`absl::debian5::string_view::rfind(char, unsigned long) const'
Hello,
this seems to be caused by libtgowt being built with a previous version of
libabsl.
The old version of libabsl defined ABSL_OPTION_INLINE_NAMESPACE_NAME
with "debian5", but the current one with "debian7", therefore linking fails.
The reporter of following bug states building of telegram-desktop works
with a libtgowt-dev re-built against the current libabsl-dev package.

Kind regards,
Bernhard
