Hi Kai, All,

the above quotation is from a different thread, and it looks like ecasound
does not pick libsndfile even though it should.

There are two files attached:

1) configure.log;
2) ecasound - this is an autogenerated shell script used to call the binary
ecasound.

One can see in configure.log that libsndfile is detected, and one can see
that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set in the second file to point to libsndfile

/home/sergei/AFSWD/install/libsndfile-1.0.17/lib

directory with these contents:

"
sergei@email-addr-hidden:~/AFSWD> ls -ltr /home/sergei/AFSWD/install/libsndfile-1.0.17/lib
total 824
-rwxr-xr-x 1 sergei users 367056 2008-01-11 03:24 libsndfile.so.1.0.17
lrwxrwxrwx 1 sergei users 20 2008-01-11 03:24 libsndfile.so.1 -> libsndfile.so.1.0.17
lrwxrwxrwx 1 sergei users 20 2008-01-11 03:24 libsndfile.so -> libsndfile.so.1.0.17
-rwxr-xr-x 1 sergei users 869 2008-01-11 03:24 libsndfile.la
-rw-r--r-- 1 sergei users 457094 2008-01-11 03:24 libsndfile.a
drwxr-xr-x 2 sergei users 4096 2008-01-11 03:24 pkgconfig
sergei@email-addr-hidden:~/AFSWD>
".

However, instead of libsndfile FLEC executable is called.

Any ideas why ?

Thanks,
  Sergei.
