Still, if you mirror them yourself, this problem all but goes away.

Colin,
Because having the logic is not the correct thing to do from an
engineering point of view. Consider:
- What if Digium change the directory structure again? Having a
published directory structure is the elegant thing to do.
- Not only does it break build scripts but it breaks search engines too.
- Our scripts already have more conditional logic than I'm happy with,
dealing with all the inconsistencies that Linux distributions throw at
us. Anything which makes the installation process less brittle is a
good thing.

Why wouldn't you build in trivial conditional logic into your script or
mirror the Asterisk builds yourself?

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk download file locations
This is a request to the website manager for asterisk.org.
The build scripts for our ITSP product include the URLs to download
the Asterisk files, such as:
wget "http://ftp.digium.com/pub/asterisk/asterisk-1.2.5.tar.gz";
However, if a new version is released, asterisk-1.2.5.tar.gz is moved
to the "old" directory. This breaks our scripts until we can update
them and send them to our resellers.
Would it be possible to have a fixed address for a particular
asterisk release that will never (or at least not for a long time)
change? Perhaps put all (except very old) versions in the same
directory, with a 'latest' link to the latest one?
