So, in sum. It's just an Asterisk "idiom" or "best(?) practice" that has become somewhat common. Every time I need to do the smallest thing in Asterisk I have to Google for 3 hours and read voip-info for the more hours, and then read old mailing list post for 3 more, until I can filter out *real information* from the background noise.

Maybe it's just me... I don't settle with the first solution that "SeemsToWorkForNow, even though I have no idea Why or How"

Ah... the wonders of Early 21st Century Web Fashion and documenting everything in big lumps of Little-Ultra-Hyper-Linked-Wiki-pages with contradictory and obsolete info!!!! Hopefully it will end some day and the world will come back to its senses.

Pretty much - Not restricted to Asterisk though - rampant in Open Source in general, and to a lesser extent in the computer field as a whole. I have been struggling for a while with no good answer to come to the conclusion that Asterisk 1.4 can't be installed on CentOs 3.8 There is no information associated with the download, such as "system requirements" That would make it too easy After googling and searching for hours/days, solving one problem compiling Zaptel, breezing through the Libpri, run into another brick wall because some little POS called ptlib-config doesn't exist, and no clue where it is, or SHOULD it even exist,
So on to CentOS 4.4. and we'll see what that brings!!!!

Don't expect the world to come (back?) to its senses either
This is as good as it gets!
