Hi, I'm working on an embedded OpenWRT system, and am now the package maintainer for FreeSWITCH on OpenWRT. I have FS successfully building and packaged (and installing and working) on brcm63xx, and building on the other OpenWRT architectures as well. With 1.0.6 the build doesn't require any patches, although it does require some finagling (as is to be expected)
However, during the process of getting this to work for 1.0.6 I noticed that FS doesn't use system libraries, but instead uses it's own copies of packages it downloads, configures, and compiles and statically links. For OpenWRT this is problematic on two fronts. The first is that some packages require special build options to cross-compile properly, and the second is on embedded systems have statically copies of packages that are also on the system, uses up valuable storage and RAM. Would it be possible for the build system to support the *option* of using system versions of the packages instead of static-linked versions?
