Appears that the graphical contact list in ekiga is based upon ~/.gconf/apps/ekiga/contacts/%gconf.xml .
Does the first character of the file name, %, have a significance beyond being very unusual? Manipulation of the graphical contact list is too inconvenient. Does anyone keep contacts as plain text and update %gconf.xml by an automated means? Thanks, ... Peter E. -- Telephone 1 360 639 0202 or +13606390202 or 12506293757.
