Debian has a number of asterisk-related modules that are not part of the main asterisk package. The most notable examples are asterisk-app-fax and packages built from asterisk-addons. For that reason I have asked you in this mailing list a while ago if the binary interface to modules is expected to remain stable along the 1.2 series. You have answered that it is. Later on it was broken in 1.2.5 (for a good cause, IIRC). -- Tzafrir Cohen sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] icq#16849755 iax:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +972-50-7952406 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.xorcom.com _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-dev mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev
