The proper way to make sure ogg or speex is installed would be in sugar-jhbuild sanitycheck.
I'll take a look at that.
I discussed this with Marco P. G. on IRC. He had an issue with adding this as a prerequisite for each Sugar developer. To which I replied that IMO every Sugar developer should be able to rely on certain media libraries. Which he found okay for ogg vorbis, but maybe not for speex. Speex already is on the OLPC, but that may be by accident. There is no definitive list of what the platform will support. Worse, there is no such list at all. Maybe a post to Sugar list would be in order ...
Anyway, I published a new Squeak VM RPM. It will install ogg/vorbis/ speex automatically if needed, so we should be fine for now.
