However, as Asterisk is installed on a wide variety of platforms, such solutions are often very difficult to craft correctly. The configure script currently uses the AST_PKG_CONFIG_CHECK macro to verify pjproject is installed. That will use the output of pkg-config to verify whether or not the shared object libraries are installed. If, for whatever reason, that returns success, then I would expect chan_pjsip to enabled. The config.log would illustrate why it returned success in your case. > > > >> Another thing … the README int the top level directory doesn’t seem to > >> have been updated in a while and doesn’t mention pjproject.

You can run Asterisk just fine without it. As for the suggestion of adding an INSTALL file: this is really just the same as a README. Personally, we've found that the wiki provides a good place to collect that information. Major items are still listed in the README; as pjproject is not required for Asterisk, I'm not sure it has to be there.
