[Asterisk-Users] H.323 and G729: Another sad tale

[Paul Cheng]

THERE IS AN INCONSISTENCY IN THE README FILE THAT IS OUT OF DATE:

Follow the instructions on line below and do NOT issue a "make clean 
install" in asterisk/channels/h323 as indicated elsewhere, just issue a 
"make" and then in /usr/src/asterisk (or wherever you source is), issue 
a "make install" and this will work.

To compile this code: Issue a make in the asterisk/channels/h323 
directory, then go back to the Asterisk source top level directory and 
issue a make install.
