> Hello,
> I wanted to use the G729 Codec so I downloaded and installed the codec module to see if it would work on my installation but asterisk is refusing to load it with the error "Can't modify /usr/local/lib/asterisk/modules/codec_g729a.so's text section. Use GCC option -fPIC for shared objects, please.". Is there any chance you could publish your libraries as PIC (position independent code) as there is no disadvantage in doing so and it would allow usage on a wider range of devices (including our PBX)?
> Kind regards
