[Freeswitch-users] Linking problems with mod_portaudio.so module

[Jason White]

I've already discussed this with a few members of the community, but I would
like to raise it with a wider FreeSWITCH audience.

Since upgrading to libtool 2.2.6a (now the default in debian testing), I can't
successfully link mod_portaudio.so. The system is Debian Testing, x86_64
architecture.

ldd -d mod_portaudio.so returns the following (after listing the library
dependencies):
undefined symbol: snd_config    (./mod_portaudio.so)

snd_config is from the Alsa library, libasound.

mod_portaudio.la shows a reference to /usr/lib/libasound.la, all of which
looks correct.

I have also examined the build logs, without finding the problem, as there are
no errors reported during linking and I didn't find any linker invocations
with library parameters apparently missing.

The ldd -d output:

undefined symbol: snd_config    (./mod_portaudio.so)
        linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007fffd31ff000)

I spent several hours yesterday trying to debug this one.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

At this stage, I'm not sure whether it's a FreeSWITCH problem or a bug in
libtool, or elsewhere.
