Hi,

The Google hangout plugin is closed source, so we would need someone
from Google to port it to ARM. According to the interwebs, in future
Google hangout should not need a plugin, but use WebRTC[1] standard,
but when exactly that is going to happen is not known..

Meanwhile the best bet is indeed to use the android hangout app.
