Unless you are a "rolling" distro (e.g. gentoo, debian testing) then it is impossible to keep up with bleeding edge packages all the time and what normally happens is that fixes to major problems are cherry picked from later releases (so called backporting). Why not just migrate to the latest thing all the time? With new features come new bugs and sometimes new dependencies. However it does appear that the ekiga in Feisty is only 2.0.3-0ubuntu8..
Snark: You seem to be suggesting that the cause of this problem has been found and fixed. Can you point to the the isolated piece of code that fixes this so that a backport can be released? -- ekiga segfaults on start up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/63348 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
