The link to the git version of linphone-desktop should come with a warning that compilation could result in some existing libraries being overwritten. Cloning the git pulls in all the dependencies for a linphone desktop. When compiling there is no check for dependencies that already exist.
In my case, libxml2 got downgraded. Email stopped working. Worst of all the package manager also stopped working and I could not use it to reinstall libraries that were no longer compatible with my system. Fortunately libxml2 was installed in the wrong directory ( /lib rather than /lib64 ). Only the libxml2.so.2 link had been removed from /lib64 and the actual binary was still intact. I may discover more problems but for the moment , all is well. It made for a tense moment however. _______________________________________________ Linphone-users mailing list Linphone-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/linphone-users
