* **`ENABLE_LIME=YES`**               : disable Linphone Instant Messaging Encryption

## Note for packagers

Our CMake scripts may automatically add some paths into research paths of generated binaries.
To ensure that the installed binaries are striped of any rpath, use `-DCMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON`
while you invoke cmake.

Rpm packaging
liblinphone can be generated with cmake3 using the following command:
mkdir WORK
cd WORK
cmake3 ../
make package_source
rpmbuild -ta --clean --rmsource --rmspec liblinphone-<version>-<release>.tar.gz
