[Ekiga-devel-list] Ekiga not launching

[Wendell <wkrause ncodesys com>]

I am a noob and am running Ubuntu 7.10.
I have been using Skype and saw that Ekiga was installed automatically. 
I decided to try it but it will not launch.
Possibly there are dependencies that were not loaded.
How can I add Ekiga site to the repositories so that I can get upgrades? 
Or is that not the route to go?
