Can you identify anything special which is needed? A certain minimum 
version is required, which is true of any library dependency. You can't 
use an old glibc for a program using C99 features, for example. spandsp 
0.0.3 differs from spandsp 0.0.2 mostly in providing T.38 support. We 
are trying to get T.38 support into openpbx, so we don't want to start 
out supporting spandsp 0.0.2. Because the T.38 features in 0.0.3 
demanded some API changes, FAX support in 0.0.3 is not compatible with 
0.0.2. However, like other incompatible libraries - gtk1 vs gtk2 for 
example - library versioning allows multiple spandsp versions to coexist 
on a machine, if that is needed.
