Yes, Ubuntu Jaunty has the proper version of libsoup, but such version
is not available for Ubuntu Hardy

Exactly that is what I was trying to avoid, change to a newer version of
Ubuntu.

I tried to compile Glib, libsoup, libproxy, totem-pl-parser from source
code (tar.gz files), but after many hours of work I got many errors on
the process. So it seems that I have no other option than use a newer
distro.

Thanks for your time
