====== Notes for building asterisk & app_rpt on Debian ======
  * [[build_notes:forum | Forum notes]]
===== Dependencies =====
  * Get the kernel header files for your current kernel - uname -r  - they must match
     * This is necessary to compile asterisk and dahdi
<file>
libslang2-dev:amd64 <none> 2.2.4-15
libnewt-dev:amd64 <none> 0.52.14-11.1
libsqlite3-dev:amd64 <none> 3.7.13-1+deb7u1
libxml2-dev:amd64 <none> 2.8.0+dfsg1-7+nmu2
uuid-dev:amd64 <none> 2.20.1-5.3
libjansson4:amd64 <none> 2.3.1-2
libjansson-dev:amd64 <none> 2.3.1-2
</file>
===== Get Source =====
  * Pick up the Acid SVN and Dahdi patches.
<code bash>
cd /usr/src
svn co http://svn.ohnosec.org/svn/projects/allstar/astsrc-1.4.23-pre/trunk/
</code>

  * FIXME this creates a //trunk// directory.
    * I think I only needed to check out trunk/asterisk & trunk/fixed-dahdi-patches

  * Source code can be browsed [[http://svn.ohnosec.org/svn/projects/allstar/astsrc-1.4.23-pre/trunk/ | here]]

  http://svn.ohnosec.org/svn/projects/allstar/astsrc-1.4.23-pre/trunk/fixed-dahdi-patches/
  http://svn.ohnosec.org/svn/projects/allstar/astsrc-1.4.23-pre/trunk/

  * Get Dahdi source (currently 2.9.1.1) from asterisk.org 

  http://www.asterisk.org/downloads/dahdi

  * Create a ///usr/src/asterisk//  and untar the acid svn there.
  * create ///usr/src/utils/dahdi// and untar dahdi there. 
  * Also untar the dahdi patches and apply them. Readme shows how.

  * Compile and install Dahdi - make all, make install, make configure

  * You need to have dahdi up and running before you compile asterisk.

  * Compile asterisk

<code bash>
./configure
make
sudo make install
</code>

  * copy the other files from a running asterisk allstar system 
    * /etc/asterisk config files,
    * rc.updatenodelist.

  * There are many more in between steps and failure points that need to be reconciled. 
  * In particular there will be errors in compiles because of missing dependencies especially with the asterisk compile.
    * You need to load the dependency and then run ./configure again, then make.
    * After you do the ./configure you can do a make menuselect and see what items are not loading (XXX) because of dependency failures
    * When you cursor to it it shows the requiements at the bottom of the screen.
      * These are not always exactly the name you need to install but they are close.
