JMP requires a version of Gajim that is at least 0.0.1 versions ahead
of the one in Trisquel 8. The version in Trisquel 8 prevents me from
sending images to my contacts over MMS.
I tried adding Gajim's PPA and it gave me dependency issues.

Oh, well. I'm using Flatpak as a workaround, until I can properly
install it. I just want to be able to send photos to Mom's phone.
