Sure it works but as far as I know uClibc is the default C library on Android. I'm not saying it is not possible to get Ekiga to run on droid. I know that much of the Debian has been ported, including C++ library, X and GTK. It's just that I get the impression that many people hear Android, think Linux and assume that running any Linux software is simply a matter of cross compilation. PS. This is why I'm waiting to see what will happen with N9 instead of buying a droid phone. -- Ian _______________________________________________ ekiga-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
