[Linphone-users] Difficulty building linphone for FreeBSD 7

[Paul Brian]

I am hitting  difficulties in building linphone-2.1.1 on FreeBSD 7.0
The port depends on an out of date version on libosip2, so building from source is the next obvious step.
however,

1. there is no alloca.h despite being in oss.c

   mediastreamer2/src/oss.c: #include <alloca.h>

not too sure about this - I cannot see what provides alloca.h - can anyone help?

2. if i comment this out (!) things progress for a while, but then die
(                 from linphonecore.c:20:
../config.h:155:1: error: "__FreeBSD__" redefined
). It seems foolish to progress further

SO my questions are

1. is there a simple set of instructions for FreeBSD?
2. should I have alloca.h from somewhere else
3. where does one get libavcodec?
4. how do I turn off video support (all I want is a SIP phone). The Makefile is rather dense

cheers
