I believe that gnome-contacts should be using libcheese for its avatar capture, IIRC, which should solve this problem.
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2012-07-29 11:25:59 UTC 
I think that wasn't done due to 'no vala bindings' ?

I didn't use libcheese since contacts was more core than cheese, so it didn't feel right to make contacts depends on cheese. Anyway I don't remember right now If I asked Alex before.

gnome-control-center, which is more "core" than contacts, uses libcheese as an compile-time option.

The cheese bug for splitting out the library is bug 677423

But that's not a requirement for the port of gnome-contacts.
Comment 7 Alexander Larsson 2012-09-03 11:25:40 UTC 
Pushed a conversion to use libcheese. However, we still need cheese to move to gstreamer 1.0.
Comment 8 Matthias Clasen 2012-09-04 00:21:23 UTC 
The cheese port was done today
Comment 9 Alexander Larsson 2012-09-05 09:33:23 UTC 
Bumped dep to the gst 1.0 based cheese and removed gst 0.10 deps:
