Please DO NOT remove the asterisk-gui.. FreePBX is AWFUL!!! In comparison to the asterisk-gui... and having to manually tap out and type all the config files would be purely and exceptionally TEDIOUS! Yes the gui lacks in some respects however it does most all of the repetitious and simple work very well and then I can hand edit the pieces that I need to without spending HOURS tapping out configs by hand

I will then add that patch to the main Astlinux release. If we can't get this resolved, we will remove the Asterisk-gui.
