Too bad...
I agree with you that we should'nt have all this different configuration.
(by reading this end of the mail, it seems to be done in 0.10?)
As you suggest, linphone should test if the route and the url points to
the same host and just avoid to add this unusefull route header.

I would like to know wether ser will support a pre-route set with
a different host? Can you confirm that?

By using the Route header, the mechanism to send the request is always
the same. In linphone case, this makes the code to send requests simpler
as there is no special cases based on the context of the dialog (first
invite without a dialog, second invite without a dialog (authentication),
re-invite within a dialog.

This makes the application easier to code, maintain. :)
Hope you are convinced.

Hope you are right.

I don't have gnome2 so I can't tell you.

It would be.
