[Freeswitch-users] Re- FreeSWITCH 1.6.5 Lua version (can it be upgraded)?

[Michael Jerris]

I would check how the rpm is doing the build.  Looks like an fpic issue,
Installing the dev package against a different version manually installed
is a recipie for causing all kinds of issues that are a pain to fix.  If
you are using packages at all, don't mix it.
