For what it's worth, on my own Debian (testing) machine, no changes at
all were necessary.  I just did the CVS checkout, and "make all" as
directed.  Even "make install" worked fine.  Pretty impressive.

I was even able to make the program documentation once I found out
that the required program "dot" is part of the "graphviz" package, and
not doxygen:

% apt-get install openssl-dev doxygen graphviz

I do like the file layout in Mark Purcell's asterisk Debian package
better than the defaults, of course, but it's probably easier in the
long run to stay on the CVS tip and adopt that (non-Debian) layout.

It would be awesome if the Debian buildpkg files could eventually be
included in the CVS tree.
