Re: [Ekiga-list] Ekiga stopped working

["Zachary Zelinski" <zach zzelinski com>]

When I remove lipt-1.10.0 and reinstall from the ekiga download site, and do the same with libopal-2.2, ekiga works, but then my package manager wants to upgrade libpt from 1.10.7 to 1.10.10. After doing so, I get that same message about not finding the right library. Wouldn't this have something to do with Ekiga referencing a specific library version, and if so, is it possible for me to somehow change the reference to use the latest libpt version?

Apparently your package manager broken the dependancies on your system.

I would do what you propose, and reinstall either using our debs, or
using the package manager (but starting from scratch).

You will have to do :
apt-get remove --purge 'libpt-*'

It should remove everything.
