Linphone 3.7.0's release into 'unstable' is being held up by 'belle-sip',
which is in the new package queue <https://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html>.
Ubuntu usually picks up Debian packages after some time.

You can also find some backported packages in our Linphone
PPA<https://launchpad.net/~linphone/+archive/release>.
Julius Schwarzenberg recently built 3.6.1 for 'precise'.

If you decide to build your own, I would use the source package from the VOIP
Team <http://pkg-voip.alioth.debian.org/> instead of the tarball. Using
Debian tools will complain clearly about missing dependencies and will
produce a binary Debian package.
