Hey, I have some info on Speex, mainly about why a development version should be in 6.4. If you want to know why, look it up, but if you don't know, here is it in short: 1: Upstream higly remomends that version (please see http://www.speex.org/downloads/, that speaks for itself.), and 2: the more recent development versions introduce a new libary, libspeexdsp, that contains all the non-codec functions of Speex. Some packages (including PulseAudio, libspeexdsp is listed as a requirment on the download page) require it. Also, there is a 3rd reason: The latest Speex version, 1.2rc1, was released like, a year ago. That makes it stable enough for use, in my option. Even Debian Stable (which is known for using very stable versions of software) uses a development version of Speex.
Just my two cents, and also to give another reason why a Speex development version should be in 6.4. William -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
