There is one difference from libotr2. For kopete-otr is dependence libotr2

As I watched on the deb-multimedia is old mplayer including mencoder still
available for Jessie. Thus, users can simply add this apt source that is
maintained.
What do you think?
Note: While I was not looking, what is the state with Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic).

Mencoder is
part of mplayer1. I'm not sure that we want to maintain
mplayer1. Therefore, it seems to me to be more appropriate to replace
mencoder by libav-tools (avconv). For now I have not examined how
difficult task it is.
Ok Slavek, now I get what you mean. It makes sense to do the switch if
possible (I also have no clue how long it would require). As a temporary
solution until we complete such task we can still consider adding mencoder
to the dependency package list, as we did with libotr2. What do you think?
