Ok, thanks for this feedback, I've continued looking at this. I notice the following versions of TelepathyQt: https://packages.qa.debian.org/t/telepathy-qt.html Debian jessie / stable has 0.9.4+dfsg-3 Debian stretch / testing has 0.9.6.1-2 https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/?packages=telepathy-qt Fedora 22 has 0.9.6.1-1 Fedora 23 will presumably have the same https://launchpad.net/telepathy-qt/+packages Ubuntu vivid and wily have 0.9.6 So if I want to develop something that will run on Debian, it needs to compile with 0.9.4 but it also needs to compile against newer versions like 0.9.6. How much does the API change between those versions? _______________________________________________ telepathy mailing list telepathy@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/telepathy
