Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdenetwork

I'm using Kopete 0.12.7 in KDE 3.5.8, both unaltered from the stock
Kubuntu Gutsy repositories (actually, it's Edgy upgraded to Feisty
upgraded to Gutsy).  Kopete sees my webcam and allows me to view it and
set its contents.  However, when I'm using the Yahoo Messenger protocol
and invite someone to view my webcam, I always get the error message:
"webcam is not available".

I haven't tried viewing someone else's webcam, so I don't know if the
problem exists in both directions.

My /etc/lsb-release:

DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=7.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=gutsy
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 7.10"

"apt-cache policy kopete" returns:

kopete:
