>          Issue Type: Improvement
>      Security Level: None
>          Components: Contrib/General
>    Affects Versions: 13.17.2, 14.6.2, 15.0.0
>            Reporter: Tzafrir Cohen
>            Severity: Minor
>
> I tried using ast_coredumper for a version I built myself. I normally don't install asterisk on the system. Therefore the version of asterisk in /usr/sbin/asterisk is not the one that generated the core files.
> For my case I could run:
>   PATH=$PWD/main:$PATH ./contrib/scripts/ast_coredumper
> However, this would not work for cases someone uses a renamed asterisk binary (for instance, a wrapper script at /usr/sbin/asterisk with /usr/sbin/asterisk.real).
> I have a aptch that I wrote and tested on asterisk 13 (to add the option --asterisk-bin) and applies cleanly on master.
