I just finished a transition from the old ATrpms setup for asterisk to a new one that allows you to use asterisk 1.4 on F11 w/o fear of asterisk 1.6 overwriting it. It's not what I recommend, one should try to move to 1.6, but upgrading both the underlying OS and the asterisk/dahdi/zaptel framework can be seperated that way. For RHEL/CentOS/Scientific Linux there will even be asterisk12/zaptel12 support, and there are shiny new 1.6 packages there as well. ATM there are no userland bits to download at ATrpms at all, as I'm trying to move the fax application out of the asterisk14 rpm to using agx-ast-addons instead, but I'll release the packages and make an announcement about it soon. If you feel like a guinea pig, you can contact me off list or on ATrpms-devel to help testing. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
