Public bug reported:

The current Ubuntu build of linphone packages (3.5.2-10) does not
include ZRTP support for secure communications.

It does include SRTP, but that mode sends encryption keys in the clear,
which kind of defeats the purpose. (Unless you use TCP/TLS for the SIP
connection... But even that is not entirely secure from man-in-the-
middle attacks.)

The current version of linphone does support ZRTP, provided the
libzrtpcpp library is available at compilation time. This is clearly a
good feature to have for security and also for interoperation with other
ZRTP-enabled IP telephony clients.

Please fix the packaging to compile in ZRTP support for linphone.
Thanks.
