Hi Yann,

Sorry for the delay and thank you very much for your involvement in ekiga.

Yes, it is up-to-date unfortunately.  Snapshots use ekiga master with 
stable ptlib/opal, and there are a few very important issues which need 
to be fixed before testing it, see 
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/ekiga-devel-list/2010-June/msg00029.html 
 When they get fixed, I will send an e-mail for testing, and testing 
will be *greatly* appreciated.

I do not know.  Still I think this is the most urgent thing currently. 
I plan to work on them probably next week.

You could try, but I think it does not work since I generate them using 
debian unstable, which use updated versions of packages, not found in 
ubuntu 10.04.
