I was looking at the sdpops_mod.c code hoping that there was an easy way to remove a sess_version (Session Description Protocol Version (v): 0) structure, but there does not appear to be that functionality in that module. It might be a bit of work to remove a duplicate sess_version line.
I am using Kamailio 5.1, does anyone know if this is an issue in later versions?
Thank you, -Steve
I think you've crawled down that rabbit hole about two millennia prematurely. There is a much simpler explanation for why you're getting a duplicated SDP stanza - in the logic of your route script. It's not a bug in Kamailio.
I can't tell you exactly what the cause is, but I believe this avenue of exploration will prove fruitful. It's a fairly common problem.

Could you tell me what type of calls could cause this in a route script. I just do see what I could be doing to generate that. It only happens with rtpengine is enabled.
Thank you.

More generally, Steve, responding to some themes I see in your posts over the past few months:
You have a habit of posting overblown speculations about problems and painting yourself into grossly overcomplicated interpretations that send you down spurious paths of troubleshooting.
I think you need to seriously ponder Occam's Razor:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor
If you're running into an unexpected phenomenon, why do you assume it's a bug in Kamailio or a "de novo" problem? In fact, a little Googling will reveal that double SDP stanzas are a common question.

The simplest explanation is almost ALWAYS the correct one. Yes, occasionally it is possible to find a true, honest-to-god original bug in the product -- we all have. But it is not the explanation you should start with, nor one you should readily leap to, because it requires a lot more assumptions, so probabilistically, it is almost always the wrong theory.
Consider it in terms of thermodynamics, mathematics, and the complexity introduced by additional moving parts if you like:
If you see an unexplained flash of light, there are numerous possible explanations. Some are quite simple: optical-neurological phenomenon, reflection from the mirror of a passing car, etc. Some are extremely complicated and involve novel, unproven ideas in physics or cosmology.
"Hey, what was that flash of ligth?"
Which should you start with FIRST? Think about it critically ...
