I just found out what to do....I searched online and found that the packages
DO install the headers Ekiga wanted, but in a default folder, whereas I
should be installing them with this added on the end: --prefix=/usr
When I did that, everything went well...sorry for the confusion, it was
because I was ignorant of the installation path (and because of my general
linux ignorance).
Thanks for trying to understand my nonsense!
