Hi,
Once u have installed ptlib and then opal cant be found sounds a little
absurd.
But ptlib is installed already on your system if you followed the right
steps mentioned for installing ptlib.

To verify and let opal find ptlib, please do the following on your Fedora
machine:

On the command line, type:
     cd /usr/bin
     pkg-config --list-all | grep ptlib

If ptlib is installed, the above command will list the ptlib from the
pkg-config file. After that, type:

     export PKG_CONFIG_PATH= /usr/bin/pkg-config

Now try to install OPAL.

When ptlib gets installed, opal tries to look for it in /usr/local/bin by
default. But the pkg-config file is in the /usr/bin directory. So we need to
export the path to pkg-config and let opal search the pkg-config file and
confirm that ptlib is installed.

I have tried these steps on fedora 9 system and was able to install ekiga
and get it running.
