I think those are called the live builds. Basically, they are not |
| 12 |
tested much and are really close to falling off the bleeding edge. I |
| 13 |
rarely mess with those. There is a google-talkplugin-2.5.6.0 that is |
| 14 |
not live but keyworded. If it was me, I would at least try that version |
| 15 |
first. It is likely tested a bit more, not going to change so often and |
| 16 |
be stable as it gets in the unstable branch of the tree. If that fails, |
| 17 |
go back to the older version. If neither works, then I would try to |
| 18 |
9999 build. I'd also cross my fingers for good measure. |
