> A shared library should specify all its dependencies by itself. That way, a user (here: Asterisk) simply adds that library, for example:
> {code}cc hello.c -lasound{code}
> Then, the platform loads the dependent libraries automatically. Therefore, looking for a library without any additional libraries should be the default. Everything else should be the exception. Since Autotools were added to Asterisk, the shared library {{libasound.so}} was always loaded together with -lm and -ldl, always. Why ever. The commit logs do not reveal which platform/version required that. Anyway, {{libdl.so}} is not available on BSD systems like NetBSD.
> Therefore, the attached patch first tries without any additional libraries. To keep compatibility with an unknown platform/version, the script {{./configure}} retries with those libraries as previously.
> Furthermore, the error code ESTRPIPE does not exist on NetBSD.
> Finally, a check for an external library should use a symbol actually used in Asterisk. {{snd_spcm_init(.)}} is not used but {{snd_pcm_open(.)}} is.
