Ekiga is dead according to Gentoo

A day of sadness has begun:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/627868

No, there is nothing I can do about it. I've lost my laptop recently and
have other things going on in my life.
I though I would write this to you fellows in hopes that the devs might
make a release because Gentoo does not drop something 99% of the time
without good reason & ekiga will loose even more distros as they
progress in the dev cycle.

# Pacho Ramos <[email protected]> (27 Dec 2017)
# All Ekiga set is dead and broken for years, it relies on obsolete
# dead/libs that are also old and broken and upstream looks to not release
# newer ekiga ever. To keep this please go ahead and take care of it *and
# all the dependencies it also needs*. See bugs #626176, #460458, #589276,
# #638122, #641990, #633670, #624578, #600398, #627868.
# Removal in a month.

Thanks,
