I have asked upstream (Robert Jongbloed) to make a new release ptlib
2.6.7 and opal 3.6.8 with a very important network fix.  As there is
about stable branches, there should be no regression, we will check it
anyway.  Could we wait for a week?  As shown above, only ekiga is
concerned by this transition and I will upload ekiga too at about the
same time.

Indeed.
