The unmet dependencies are the problem.
In rare cases, a newer library can even break packages you have already installed.
As an example, that can mean you get to pick between installing the new Linphone
or the version of KDE that comes with your release.
What says Linphone developers about it? Is there really need to use newest library versions?
Is there really need to use libraries which can't be installed on one of popular modern Linux distribution
released only one year ago?
May be rename Linphone to WinMacPhone? Windows and Mac users has support, unlike Linux users.
Linux users has no bugfixes and new features updates.
Frequently those packages have dependencies of their own that are not available for your release.
So it must be build in PPA. This is common practice of all other developers.

I didn't find it useless. -jfe-
Because you are using 13.04 "Raring" release. But "Raring" is 9-month-live release. This is "Ubuntu testing release".
And many (may be even most) of people are using Ubuntu LTS releases ("Ubuntu stable"), which are 5-year supported.
So main task is backporting stable Linphone versions to LTS. Backporting to testing is useless.
