Ekiga-windows installer doesn't work if newer gtk+2_runtime is installed

Installing ekiga-setup-2.0.9-BETA.exe on a WinXP computer
gives an error when 
a newer gtk+2_runtime_2.10.6 was already installed and
uninstalled.
First I thought it was better to uninstall
gtk+2_runtime_2.10.6 before 
installing ekiga-setup-2.0.9-BETA.exe (which includes
gtk+2_runtime_2.8.9). 
But installing ekiga then gives an error that there still
exist another 
gtk+2_runtime on the computer. Apparently the uninstall of 
gtk+2_runtime_2.10.6 doesn't work well. I searched the
registry to delete 
any "gtk" keys but the install of
gtk+2_runtime_2.8.9 (and thus ekiga) still 
fails.
Then I reinstalled gtk+2_runtime_2.10.6 and I tried
installing ekiga. Now the 
installer gives the options to either uninstall the newer 
gtk+2_runtime_2.10.6 and install the older
gtk+2_runtime_2.8.9 or to keep the 
newer gtk+2_runtime_2.10.6. Keeping the newer
gtk+2_runtime_2.10.6 was my only 
option as the uninstall of it doesn't work well.
I don't know whether ekiga-windows functions well with
gtk+2_runtime_2.10.6.

Why was the older gtk+2_runtime_2.8.9 chosen to be installed
by 
ekiga-setup-2.0.9-BETA.exe ?

Did you change GTK+ path after the installation. However,
now that you 
have your registry clean, it should be ok.

There has not been any report yet. I've tried and did not
notice 
anything wrong for now.

The reason is an error in the package that does not
correctly detect 
when you have a newer GTK version.

Fixed  package will be provided very soon.
