Gentoo currently features an ebuld for .59s, however asterisk, the open source PBX should (but does not yet) have a dependancy for .59r. Adding this ebuild to the source tree would allow Asterisk's music-on-hold feature to work without doing a custom compile, followed by an inject. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Suggestion: could we have a use flag called 'asterisk' that modifies the behavior of the mpg123 ebuild, this would cause it to prefer the 'r' release as an alternative to the commonly installed 's' release.
uhm... 0.59s is 0.59r + bug fixes. 0.59s satisfies it... Modify the asterisk auto* tools to accept 0.59s.
Thanks Jaremy, could you kindly expand on how to do this? Spesifically, what are these auto* tools and in what way must they be modified in order to accommodate the bug-fixed version of MPG123? Thanks
You probably need to just edit configure.ac or something like that in the asterisk source tarball.
