This may help someone install FS (git version) on osx 10.6.4 as of Sep
2010. Once you have downloaded (I used git):

1. Modify modules.conf to comment mod_spandsp. I think this is only for
fax. Although I downloaded SPANDSP 0.0.6, it required LIBTIFF which I
could not figure out how to install. No fax for now.

2. cp /usr/include/string.h /freeswitch/libs/flite-1.3.99/include
This is what is causing flite to fail during make. See these:
http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/festlang-talk/2008-June/001043.html
http://www.clas.ufl.edu/users/mpanning/OSX.html

3. CD to /freeswitch/libs/flite-1.3.99/include

4. chmod +rw+rw+rw string.h
So you can update the file.

5. Edit (in xCode) string.h, find "swab" and change line:
void swab(const void * __restrict, void * __restrict, ssize_t);
              to (comment the line):
/*void swab(const void * __restrict, void * __restrict, ssize_t);*/

6. CD /freeswitch
7. Follow normal install instructions (bootstrap, config).
8. MAKE
9. SUDO MAKE INSTALL   <- SUDO was required for this

I tested on one phone and the demo IVR worked so I am thinking it is ok.

Don't build mod_flite on 10.5 for right now... or get the patch off jira and apply it.. i haven't had time to reroll it.

I am in the same boat, new to FreeSwitch, setup first on an old Linux

box (going pretty well), with plans to go Mac Mini. I tried to install

on OSX and first got the MOD_SPANDSP missing issue. Since I could not

find a way to install that on OSX I took it out of the modules.conf to

see how far I would get, thinking it's only for fax? But then I got the

same error for flite you have below. Hopefully someone here may have

already been through this and will shed some light on it. I am working

on it right now and if I find anything I will post.
