 Is there a good reason to make this an explicit suboption rather than an
automatic one like we usually do?

 I would be more inclined to add something like this to the pjsip help text:

pjsip will include the following codecs if the corresponding package is enabled
in Buildroot: GSM, Speex, iLBC.

 Arnout

The issue I see is that the handling of codecs is not orthogonal
(accounting for your reply to the G711 codec):

  - codecs without external dependency will always be built, 

  - codecs with external dependencies need those dependencies to be
    manually selected.

By adding a config for each codec, the behaviour is then the same for
all codecs, so the user experiences a _consistent_ behaviour.

Well, that is what I originally thought, yes, but as explained above, I
still believe that usrr experience should be more consistent.

 So how does this differ with e.g. freeswitch, where e.g. speex is enabled if it
is enabled, while zrtp (with no external dependencies) is always enabled? I'm
taking this example because it is one I could fine where we explicitly pass
--enable-zrtp from Buildroot, but there are many others where we don't pass
anything explicitly.

 The general guideline is: enable everything if it doesn't increase the size
much, automatically enable things with external dependencies if it doesn't
increase the size much, and only add explicit options if there is a good reason,
like it would increase the size too much, or the external dependency is not
obvious, or something exceptional.

 Clearly, we have (many) exceptions to these principles. I just want to make
sure that we spend conscious thought on such exceptions and don't do it randomly.

 Note that personally I have nothing against adding config options all over the
place. I just want to make sure we follow consistent principles.

 Arnout
