Re: [Linphone-users] ubuntu 12 and the linphone 3.7.0 dependencies dooesn't fit?

[Felix Lechner]

Linphone 3.7.0's release into 'unstable' is being held up by 'belle-sip', which is in the new package queue. Ubuntu usually picks up Debian packages after some time.

You can also find some backported packages in our Linphone PPA. Julius Schwarzenberg recently built 3.6.1 for 'precise'.

If you decide to build your own, I would use the source package from the VOIP Team instead of the tarball. Using Debian tools will complain clearly about missing dependencies and will produce a binary Debian package.

I want to know, if the linphone 3.7.0 source package is a joke?

Previously I have tried to install linphone on ubuntu 12.04. Never got it working.

What I want to know, is linphone only for computer professionals? Because I am not.

This time I downloaded linphone 3.7.0 linux source package.

I read the README.

I know how to use the synaptic package manager (spm) and the terminal. So I started.

When I got to the config part, I got a package error.

Then I searched every package listed on the README in the spm.

I have been advised not to do any package downgrades on ubuntu.

No surprise linphone cannot be installed on ubuntu 12.04.

Linphone 3.7.0 was released few weeks ago, and in the README it says, that it will run on ubuntu.

On what ubuntu? Ubuntu 10.04? Or ubuntu 3?

The srtp and zrtp part I got installed. I do not know if it works, because I cannot install linphone.

In the spm I could not find belle-sip. And I did not know were to look for it. In a linphone support email I now read how to get it, and got it.

Thanks.
