Crap. :-(

Looks like you are totally right, dude. Rather that *adding* a new
release, it seems the old opal and pwlib source tarballs actually have
been removed. What an unfriendly and stupid way...

(Only ekiga itself still is available, since it is hosted on f.g.o, but
the releases hosted on ekiga.org have vanished.)

I just uploaded both opal-2.2.1.tar.gz and pwlib-1.10.0.tar.gz for your
download and build pleasure. You can find them here:

  http://gnome.org/~kbrae/garnome/


You now have quite a few options how to proceed.

* Manually download opal and pwlib and stick them in the download/ dir
  in bootstrap/opal/ and bootstrap/pwlib respectively (or your
  GARCHIVEDIR, if you use it).

* Adjust the MASTER_SITES line in the Makefile for bootstrap/opal/ and
  bootstrap/pwlib/ to simply point to the URL mentioned above.

* Bump the versions of opal, pwlib and probably ekiga (including
  correcting the checksums). This unfortunately would mean, that you
  also need to adjust the MASTER_SITES for ekiga -- since 2.0.2 hasn't
  been uploaded to f.g.o yet.

  You can find the relevant changes Joseph did just today in viewcvs:
