[asterisk-dev] zaptel installs headers

[Bob]

Let's explore this a little further.

If I want to compile my driver on a system then I have to download the
zaptel that I want to compile against. We are talking kernel modules now,
not user apps. How do I do that and not mind where the user has put the
zaptel sources?

When I compile my own force_deth driver, I don't need to get all of the
kernel sources for CentOs. I just get the header files and all that they
reference.

Even though digium would like to trademark zaptel and not put it into the
mainstream kernel, they should supply the header files and the files that
they reference into the include directory. Even the closed drivers do this.

We now have many versions of zaptel binaries from many distros. Everyone has
been good about this so far. I just want to be able to make a zaptel driver
that works across all of the versions. Not too much to ask.

Just put the files and the ones that they reference in the proper place.

OK?

zaptel.h is installed to /usr/include/zaptel/zaptel.h (before zaptel 1.4
it was /usr/include/linux).

zaptel.h alone is good enough if you want to build userspace programs
vs. Zaptel. It is not good enough if you also want to build Zaptel kernel
modules with it.

I'm not really sure how practical it is to provide those.
