if you try the asterisk-devel port, it does not have that and a few other dependencies, and it uses either the trunk code or a branch with some modifications of mine that i am using on FreeBSD. yes there is a problem with mpg123 because the parent (asterisk) process doesn't handle interaction with the children (mpg123) properly, at least on freebsd. a change was committed last summer, but backed out because it caused some problem on linux. i gave up on tracking the issue because i don't use mpg123 or moh anyways. cheers luigi p.s. we are now in a rather long ports freeze in freebsd so for the next couple of weeks there are basically no commits allowed to the ports tree > What's your opinion? > > As a non-related side note, I just succeeded in receiving a multipage > fax over g711(alaw) / 9600 fax passthru connection (non-T38) from a > panasonic fax machine using rxfax/spandsp installed via current asterisk > port.
