I have to agree. Though generic CVS instructions were posted in this
mailing-list recently by me.

I began a Wiki-Entry with generic compiling instructions, it's *far
from* being complete, but I hope others will fill it with life, too
(dependencies, specials, configure-options, ...).

http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/F.A.Q.:_Additional_Information

The problem here is really the time to do such things. As it is a Wiki,
I hope others will contribute a bit. This page is meant as addition to
the official FAQ, it can contain everything you think is worth.
