Re: [Ekiga-list] Ekiga 4.0.1 and Renavisio

[Eugen Dedu <eugen dedu univ-fcomte fr>]

Samuel, would it be possible to you to use ekiga unstable code instead 
of ekiga 4.0.1?  We are fixing bugs for the former, while the latter is 
too old to fix bugs.  Note that for the moment you need to use ffmpeg, 
not libav, for the unstable code of ekiga.
