I always use this parameter to install all the files in the same directory, else it installs in /usr/local/freeswitch I believe.

Its a bit weird to be specifying that as prefix, maybe its an issue when specifying a prefix as the same as your source dir?

It must specify an install prefix, a build directory, or an apr-config file. configure: error: ./configure.gnu failed for libs/apr-util I’m running the following command to configure: ./configure -prefix=/usr/src/freeswitch/ --enable-core-odbc-support Also, a lot of directories inside the libs require the configure script to be executable.
