What is the problem with ffmpeg?  I couldn't find any reference to it in
DuckDuckGo search results.

Maybe the Jami client can be built without video support, if it only
does voice and IM could that provide a way forward?

Agreed, I wasn't advocating we simply copy those, I was only pointing to
their existence.

I was able to complete the build for Debian on my own schroot build
environment, it didn't require anything that wasn't already available
through Debian.  The dependencies on Debian are subject to much the same
policy as Fedora.
