Information about the package, gsm, which is shipped with common Linux distributions. The gsm package is designed for, Shared libraries for GSM speech compressor.
Package Name:
gsm
Summary:
Shared libraries for GSM speech compressor
Description:
Contains runtime shared libraries for libgsm, an implementation of the European GSM 06.10 provisional standard for full-rate speech transcoding, prI-ETS 300 036, which uses RPE/LTP (residual pulse excitation/long term prediction) coding at 13 kbit/s. GSM 06.10 compresses frames of 162 13-bit samples (8 kHz sampling rate, i.e. a frame rate of 50 Hz) into 260 bits; for compatibility with typical UNIX applications, our implementation turns frames of 160 16-bit linear samples into 33-byte frames (1650 Bytes/s). The quality of the algorithm is good enough for reliable speaker recognition; even music often survives transcoding in recognizable form (given the bandwidth limitations of 8 kHz sampling rate). The interfaces offered are a front end modelled after compress(1), and a library API. Compression and decompression run faster than realtime on most SPARCstations. The implementation has been verified against the ETSI standard test patterns.

yum info gsm
This command will show you core information about the gsm package.
yum deplist gsm
This command will show you the dependencies for gsm. Thankfully, when using Yum, if dependencies are required, these are also installed at the same time so you don't have to worry too much about that.
yum check-update gsm
This command will check if there is an update waiting on gsm. When you run this command this will return nothing if there is nothing to update, or, will return the package name if the package is due to be updated.
