I'd like to see this in Fedora Extras. The way I'd probably do it is to
have the _build_ process require libpri and zaptel (possibly with an
option to turn them off), but put those modules which _use_ the extra
libraries split off into separate packages so the base 'asterisk' binary
RPM doesn't require the extras.

So you'd end up with asterisk, asterisk-fax, asterisk-zap, asterisk-pri
binary packages built from one source rpm. And probably also separate
asterisk-bluetooth and asterisk-capi source packages.
