[asterisk-users] Re: FW: zaptel 1.4.0 on Fedora Core 6 x86_64

[Carlos Alperin]

Axel,

Thanks for your advice, but as I tried to found the real problem overpass
the search is just like close my eyes.

I'm trying to learn in order to not repeat same mistake twice. I don't know
how the rpm's are build, and I don't think that 
You can apply on every kind of variation you can find. Also, there are
additional functions I going to add, that are directly related 
To the full system, so I cannot drive this on blind packages.

Thanks a lot, but I'm going to search for the solution and find what mistake
I made.

If you want to save these hassles, why not use the packages bits that are
available for FC5/FC6/RHEL4/RHEL3 i386/x86_64/ppc? There are even packages
for the upcoming F7 and RHEL5 available:

http://atrpms.net/name/asterisk/
http://atrpms.net/name/zaptel/

If you add atrpms to your yum config all you have to do is

yum install asterisk zaptel zaptel-kmdl-`uname -r`

If you want yum to automatically install new kmdls for new kernels also
install yum-plugin-kmdl, and then you only need to use yum update and not
worry again (or worry less ...).
