[asterisk-users] Building Asterisk

[Jeffrey Walton]

I'm catching compile errors for multiply defined symbols. Searching
the web reveals lots of folks have experienced it through various
versions of the software [1,2,3, 4, ...].

I've been building based on README, but I think I might be missing a
few steps. Essentially, the steps are:

    ./configure
    make
    sudo make install

However, under GCC, I can't find/run `make test` or `make check`.
("test" is mention once in the README; "check" is mention three times.
Neither relate to testing the build).

Where can I find a document on building Asterisk that provides the
steps to build that avoids things like multiply defined symbols and
includes testing?

Thanks in advance.
