I was asked to post to the mailing list what I did to get sid’s ekiga to build on metad.
First, the package from sid didn’t depend on libgnomeui-dev as supposed to, so I got ./configure errors about it missing. Ekiga also would trigger internal GCC errors when built with Debian’s (read: metad’s) gcc 4.3. Apparently it’s a known bug [1]. It built fine with gcc 4.2, but I only tested it very briefly; started it and ran the configuration wizard, made sure the UI/roster showed up and then terminated it. It required backporting of libv4l 0.6.3, libpt 2.6.5, libcapi20 (from isdnutils 3.9.20060704) and libopal 3.6.6, in that order (some of the packages depend on each other).
