The missing packages found are: gmime-devel, iksemel-devel, corosynclib-devel, libresample-devel, hoard and python-devel. Python-devel could be replaced by python2-devel or python3-devel (python36-devel), but I am not sure if there is any python incompatibility... gmime-devel, iksemel-devel and hoard seems of no use (and they were already missing for CentOS 6 too), so only corosynclib (if you are using it) and libresample may be a problem....

By ignoring the missing packages, the compilation works and we can start Asterisk. My only concern was about the libresample-devel because in the past I think its absence caused issues when loading/starting pjsip modules, but it didn't happen this time (but I am not using pjsip, I just loaded it with the sample config files)....</div><div>Following on and making Asterisk a systemd service instead of using init.d, I first checked the service file under contrib/systemd but it seems to serve a different purpose, so it could not be used. Instead a very simple one does the job. Just make sure your exec cmd does not have the '-c' option (used in safe_asterisk), because this was causing me a 100% CPU usage (related to this: <a href="https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/191621/systemd-service-using-100-of-my-cpu-when-it-doesnt-if-i-start-it-without-syste/368037#368037" target="_blank">https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/191621/systemd-service-using-100-of-my-cpu-when-it-doesnt-if-i-start-it-without-syste/368037#368037</a>)</div><div>Be aware that SELinux may cause permissions and access problems when running as systemd service....

<p> They only problem I have found so far is while trying to
install Alembic for SQLAlchemy (for realtime configs). Those are
the only packages that I cannot get working properly. Vanilla
Asterisk works fine with the only extra package needed being
libedit-devel that is not included in any "official" repo. You
need to download the Fedora Core 29 packages to in order to
successfully compile Asterisk. That being said, I would not
recommend trying to put this in production any time soon.<br>

<div>At the current time, we do not recommend attempting to
build Asterisk on CentOS 8. Many packages Asterisk uses are
not yet available and would require building from their
sources. The Asterisk packages are also not available in the
EPEL 8 or CentOS 8 repositories yet for the same reason.</div>
