> The latest upstream change happened in 2017 and that version is called '1.0 Patchlevel 17' aka 1.0.17. The copy within Asterisk is '1.0 Patchlevel 10' aka 1.0.10 from 1996. Debian 9, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, FreeBSD 11.1, and CentOS 7.4 have 1.0.13 (from 2009). OpenBSD 6.2 has the current version.
> Therefore, the *short*-term workaround is to use the precompiled libgsm of your Unix distribution, for example in Debian/Ubuntu: {{sudo apt install libgsm1-dev}}. As *mid*-term solution, I created/attached the difference between 1.0.10 and 1.0.17 for the file {{src/codec.c}}, which resolves the clang issue above. As *long*-term approach within Asterisk, that external library should be
> A) updated to the latest upstream version. Or
> B) removed and relied solely on precompiled Unix packages.
