After a mayor release like Asterisk 15, I would have expected that someone does a cross-check before the 15.1 release, at least before the 15.2 release. Those eight steps are automatic stuff. All one has to do is to setup a new virtual machine, with a vanilla installation. Then, the actual work is to double-check the results (of configure, make, and make install). Obviously, nobody does this. Even those who do the ports, either do not understand the result of configure correctly or ignore it without reporting. For example, in BSD, the external library libedit is the default, no need to build the internal one of Asterisk. However, ./configure of Asterisk fails to find it and (tries to) build its own one. That is an issue since commit 7d4ccea (summer 2012).<br>

I was so surprised about the number of issues. One can learn so much by doing interoperability tests. And in this case, this learning is near to free.<br>

That is great news (for me), because that is my main platform. Consequently, I do not have to consider to move.<br>

ASTERISK-27598, for more details see ASTERISK-27599<br>
That was reported in May 2017: ASTERISK-26981.<br>
Actually, the first report was in December 2015: ASTERISK-24597.<br>

ASTERISK-27606<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>From a distribution perspective, Ubuntu (Josh, Kevin and Richard) and Fedora (myself and Ben) are what the Digium dev team uses for their own development desktops so those are going to get the most daily testing. As Corey mentioned though, we also test on CentOS7, both 32-bit and 64-bit builds. Havingf said that though, while I think we do a pretty good job testing building and running Asterisk on those distributions, we could probably do a better job of testing the development and production environment setup process, especially install_prereq. Maybe we could set up a weekly periodic Jenkins job to start with a clean official docker image from each of the 3 distros and do an environment setup from scratch just using the tools available in the asterisk tarball.</div><div><br></div><div>Testing FreeBSD poses other problems however. None of us really work with BSD based distributions so it would take more time that we have available to do any serious testing there.</div><div> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
