Try one or all of these repository's.
deb http://pkg-voip.buildserver.net/ubuntu feisty main
deb http://pkg-voip.buildserver.net/ubuntu feisty-experimental main
deb http://snapshots.ekiga.net/ubuntu/ feisty main
deb http://snapshots.voxgratia.org/ubuntu/ feisty main

I will also add that the wiki is really great but very difficult to find 
on the main site.
