[asterisk-users] How does Digium Repo install Dahdi on a virtual container while I can't do the same trying from source install?

[asterisk jobs]

May I know how the compile RPM from Digium Repo gets to install DAHDI so
easily on the VM? Can you please point me to how this compilation is done
so I can have my own RPM of Asterisk with all options added on (e.g.
ooh323, jabber, etc...)

Thanks
