Crashes of this kind are not uncommon, but the causes are:
- Multiple versions of libtiff installed in different directories
- Multiple versions of spandsp installed in different directories
- Asterisk was built against a spandsp installed in a directory
that is not in the library search path, while another version of spandsp
is in a directory that is in the library search path. so, at run time
the wrong library is picked up.
Many machines will happily build and install a library to /usr/local,
and then successfully like applications against it, even though
/usr/local is not in the library search path. Dumb, but true.
The installation information page for spandsp, at
http://www.soft-switch.org/installing-spandsp.html , warns about these
issues.
