Asterisk has a number of optional build dependencies. If you intend to
use any analogue PSTN hardware such as a DigiumTDM400P or plan on
implementing a key system which uses the app_meetme conferencing plugin
you will need to install the dahdi-linux and dahdi-tools software and
drivers before compiling Asterisk. If you will instead use digital
telephony hardware (not IP phones) such as T1/E1 lines or a PRI, you'll
need to install libpri, again before compiling Asterisk.
Be sure to see /usr/doc/asterisk-13.23.0/sample_confs/ after
installation for any additional configuration files you may need.
If you have plans of using Asterisk with a database backend you may
want to install the alembic package. Since version 12.0 the database
schemas that Asterisk uses are being captured in the form of python
script files that use alembic to create/update database schemas. The
asterisk package places these database scripts in the
/usr/doc/asterisk-13.23.0/ast-db-manage directory.
This build script supports the following flags:
* MOH : [default = no]
Set this flag to 'yes' if you would like to include some royalty-free
music on hold sound files with your installation. Setting this
option will cause the build to download some sound files from the
internet.
* SOUNDS_EXTRA : [default = no]
Set this flag to 'yes' if you would like to include the extra sound
package with your installation. Setting this option will cause the
build to download some sound files from the internet.
* VM_ODBC : [default = no]
Set this flag to 'yes' if you would like to store your voicemail
messages in a database. This plugin requires the unixODBC package.
This flag will override the VM_IMAP flag if both are set to 'yes'.
You will probably want to install the alembic package to configure
your database with the latest database schemas for Asterisk.
* VM_IMAP : [default = no]
Set this flag to 'yes' if you would like to store your voicemail
messages on an IMAP server. This plugin requires the University of
Washingtons IMAP server source. This flag will be overridden by the
VM_ODBC flag if both are set to 'yes'.
* G711_NEW : [default = no]
Set this flag to 'yes' if you would like to use the newer G711 codec
code. This requires a more powerful machine than would be normally
required.
* MEETME : [default = no]
Set this flag to 'yes' if you would like to build the app_meetme
plugin. This plugin is required for key style systems and
conferencing using meetme. This plugin requires the dahdi-linux
package for timing purposes.
