Problems Building Pidgin 3.0.0 for Windows

Hi,
I moved to openSUSE 13.2 . I installed MinGW.
I followed the instructions in the wiki. I installed all packages found by "zypper se mingw | grep gst". I installed this packeges:
zypper se mingw | grep far
mingw32-farstream
mingw32-farstream-debug
mingw32-farstream-debugsource
mingw32-farstream-devel
mingw32-farstream2
mingw32-farstream2-debug
mingw32-farstream2-debugsource
mingw32-farstream2-devel
But still I have this problem to build:
./configure --host=i686-w64-mingw32 --with-win32-dirs=fhs
...
checking for GSTREAMER... yes
checking for GSTVIDEO... yes
checking for FARSTREAM... no
configure: error:
Dependencies for voice/video were not met.
Install the necessary gstreamer and farstream packages first.
Or use --disable-vv if you do not need voice/video support.
What can I do to pass the FARSTREAM condition?
If I configure with "--disable-vv", then I can install on Windows. But starting pidgin.exe there are some dll's missing:
libgdk-3-0.dll
libgstreamer-1.0-0.dll
libgtk-3-0.dll
libwebkitgtk-3.0-0.dll
Best regards,
Harald
