I'm the package maintainer for both celt and ekiga in Fedora. As the
celt bitstream isn't frozen yet and is still open for change I
initially enabled in Fedora and then dropped it until the bitstream is
stable. Because of that the only way celt is guaranteed to work if its
between the versions of ekiga linked against the same version of celt.
