Re: [Ekiga-list] Follow-up: Any problems with ekiga-3.x and siproxd-0.7?

[David Tangye]

I have upgraded to 3.2.0 as part of upgrading to Ubuntu 9.04 2 weeks ago,
and am having trouble too. Calls made via ekiga.net fail, and others who are
online appear offline. Calls via a VOIP provider using sip to real phones
still work fine. I wiped .gconf/apps/ekiga and started again, but it makes
no difference.

Ekiga is bugged badly somewhere between 3.2.x and ekiga.net.

I don't know whether this is related, but I wonder if
.gconf/apps/ekiga/contacts/%gconf.xml gets corrupted, eg from line 8 - the
history data. Is this how its meant to look? Here are the first 11 lines:
