The only links given to source for this project are to git repositories, unfortunately - http://www.linphone.org/technical-corner/linphone/downloads … if there's a location from which I may download source tarballs, then so much the better, but I haven't found one yet! There's a ticket open to update the linphone port already, incidentally, but I decided not to hold my breath (that ticket has been open for 16 months …), and to update the port myself.
