Bug#737743: Please document how to connect to Debian's SIP service

[Enrico Zini]

Package: linphone
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

thank you for packaging linphone.

Now that Debian runs a SIP service[1], it would be nice if softphones in
Debian could easily connect to it.

Can you please make a little walkthrough for linphone, either in
README.Debian or in [2]? If linphone cannot be made to work with the
Debian SIP service instead, can you please mention it and recommend an
alternative?

I spent most of today trying to make it work and document it here[2],
but I wouldn't have much to say except that I failed.


Ciao,

Enrico
