We have a really really old linphone in testing/unstable that has been out-of-date since several Debian releases. The current version is staged in experimental, the transition (Bug#891620) is blocked by Kopete which does not build against a current libmediastreamer (Bug#890606). There is an upstream bug with patches attached. The first one was just NULLing additional arguments. Felix Lechner recently created a better one that still fails compilation. The upstream bug has been open for two years now, without any significant progress. We've suggested to the kopete maintainers to drop Jingle support and allow us to proceed, but no response. The linphone stack in experimental does not use libupnp anymore as far as I can see. If it helps please RM src:linphone from testing, we will rather have Buster without linphone than with this version. Bernhard
