Hello, all.  I am delightfully slogging my way through installing and
configuring Asterisk 1.6.1.1 on CentOS 5.3.  I'm learning lots and
admiring the product but I'm having a problem getting speex to install
and I would very much like to use it.  It is not available in menuselect
and the problem appears to be with speex_preprocess_ctl:

[r...@pbx01 asterisk-1.6.1.1]# grep -i speex config.log

configure:43848: gcc -o conftest -g -O2   conftest.c -lspeex  -lm  >&5

| return speex_preprocess_ctl ();

Internet searches have only further confused the issue for me.  It seems
this is part of libspeex which in the RedHat world is provided by the
speex-devel package (which I have installed):

[r...@pbx01 ~]# rpm -qa | grep speex
speex-devel-1.0.5-4.el5_1.1
speex-1.0.5-4.el5_1.1

What is the magic to make speex available to Asterisk on CentOS 5.3? Or
am I stuck having to uninstall the speex packages and install speex from
source?  Thanks - John


I ended up having to install from source. There are apparently bits of speex that are not included in the RPM's. It's a farily simple install though.

Good luck,
-Brent
