As Luigi pointed out, zaptel doesn't work on FBSD -current

It will work on 6 :)

You won't want to switch back, but it you want to change the dir structure
it can be done in the Makefile.

Take a look at the effort taken to cause it to install in the 'standard FreeBSD
places':

# XXX FreeBSD paths
  PREFIX?=/usr/local
  ASTLIBDIR=$(INSTALL_PREFIX)$(PREFIX)/lib/asterisk
  ASTVARLIBDIR=$(INSTALL_PREFIX)$(PREFIX)/share/asterisk
  ASTETCDIR=$(INSTALL_PREFIX)$(PREFIX)/etc/asterisk
  ASTSPOOLDIR=$(INSTALL_PREFIX)/var/spool/asterisk
  ASTLOGDIR=$(INSTALL_PREFIX)/var/log/asterisk
  ASTHEADERDIR=$(INSTALL_PREFIX)$(PREFIX)/include/asterisk
  ASTCONFPATH=$(ASTETCDIR)/asterisk.conf
  ASTBINDIR=$(INSTALL_PREFIX)$(PREFIX)/bin
  ASTSBINDIR=$(INSTALL_PREFIX)$(PREFIX)/sbin
  ASTVARRUNDIR=$(INSTALL_PREFIX)/var/run
  ASTMANDIR=$(INSTALL_PREFIX)$(PREFIX)/man
  # XXX end FreeBSD paths

endif # FreeBSD

While you're there, take a look at all the other work they've done to make it
Do The Right Thing on FreeBSD:

ifeq ($(OSARCH),FreeBSD)
  BSDVERSION=$(shell make -V OSVERSION -f
$(CROSS_COMPILE_TARGET)/usr/share/mk/bsd.port.subdir.mk)
  ASTCFLAGS+=$(shell if test $(BSDVERSION) -lt 500016 ; then echo "-D_THREAD_SA
FE"; fi)
  LIBS+=$(shell if test  $(BSDVERSION) -lt 502102 ; then echo "-lc_r"; else ech
o "-pthread"; fi)
  ifneq ($(wildcard $(CROSS_COMPILE_TARGET)/usr/local/include/spandsp),)
    ASTCFLAGS+=-I$(CROSS_COMPILE_TARGET)/usr/local/include/spandsp
  endif
  MPG123TARG=freebsd

With all these measures taken to enable pain-free compilation on FreeBSD
who needs the port ?
