    Here are my "generic" notes and reminders for Asterisk on Debian.
 These may be hacks; your mileage may vary.

 debian asterisk install notes:
 - in asterisk/Makefile: added "-I/usr/local/ssl/include" to CFLAGS line
 - in asterisk/res/Makefile: added "-L/usr/local/ssl/lib" to CRYPTO_LIBS line
 - in zaptel/Makefile: commented out KFLAGS+=-DCONFIG_ZAPATA_PPP   line
 - installed libnewt-dev
 - installed newt-tcl (?needed)
 - installed "apt-get source openssl"
 - installed "apt-get install openssl"

There are dev packages for openssl so the the source is not necessary. The dev packages put the headers in the right place and therefore the /usr/local/ changes aren't necessary.

libnewt-dev is important so you can compile zttool and astman. newt-tcl
shouldn't be necessary, but may be a debian dependency thing.

The PPP line is only needed if either your kernel doesn't have PPP
support, or if you don't plan on using the PPP options on the T1/E1
interfaces.

Hope that clears up any problems.

OK, thanks for the follow-up. I just did what was required to get it running on the particular version of Debian that I was given. I am unfamiliar with the distro, so those are my notes that I used to get it working. For whatever reason, the ssl libraries were not found correctly, and I had to modify the Makefiles to do the right thing. The version I was using didn't have the ppp support in the kernel by "default", so I deactivated it - none of my clients use the RAS features of Asterisk, so it's no big loss.


The one last thing I did notice is that after someone else has installed "new" kernels, the "/usr/src/linux" symlink to the kernel directory in the same . went away. I don't know if this is part of a normal kernel upgrade with Debian or what, but I've had to link it manually twice to get Asterisk to compile.
