I've been working on a project that uses the current version of Debian. I have a few scripts to configure a base install of Debian 7 for AllStar.

• Here is a snip of the get_src script.

cd /usr/src
svn export 
http://svn.ohnosec.org/svn/projects/allstar/astsrc-1.4.23-pre/trunk svntrunk
wget 
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/dahdi-linux-complete/dahdi-linux-complete-current.tar.gz
wget 
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/libpri/libpri-1.4-current.tar.gz

• Try svn export instead of svn checkout and see it asterisk compiles for you.

• I'm sure this is the wrong way to do this but…
  • Change ASTERISKVERSIONNUM=999999 in asterisk/Makefile
  • to ASTERISKVERSIONNUM=9999

This works for me on Debian 7. I have a couple of other patches to get it working under Debian but this will let you compile.

• Not sure why you would have to do that or make any other “patches.”
  • I compiled in Debain and Ubuntu with the stock svn.
  • Of course you need to satisfy a number of dependencies, etc.

I have a PC Debian box running the current svn without problems. I did that just to make sure it would work under Debian when I was doing RPi testing. The only change I ever had to make was compiling for the RPi. That was in the assembler compilation of code for the armv6 in codecs/gsm. It did not like the machine type there. That has nothing to do with the PC compile though and it was not a problem with the V7 BeagleBone. 73 Doug WA3DSP

• The patches I've done have to do with a update to

/asterisk/contrib/init.d/rc.debian.asterisk to work properly on D7.

• I also patch configure and configure.ac to replace ssl2_connect with SSL_connect.
• This fixes the dependency for res_crypto.
