It is really hard to keep up with. Well, really the main problem is not only in gnomemeeting but in openh323 and pwlib changing ABI/API even between minor revisions. For example, the latest version released are those in experimental, but we cannot move them to Sid due to those problems. Anyway, I hope that the new created pkg-voip project in Alioth will allow us to manage all these things much better. I intend it to be something similar to GNOME Team, but focusing on recompiling packages when new libs with new ABI are available. Cheers, -- Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo jsogo@debian.org
