<pre wrap="">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:
[root@pbx01 asterisk-1.6.1.1]# grep -i speex config.log
configure:43813: checking for speex_encode in -lspeex
configure:43848: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 conftest.c -lspeex -lm >&5
configure:43906: checking speex/speex.h usability

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):
[root@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.<br>

Good luck,<br>
