[asterisk-users] Install via SVN or tarball?

2006-12-05 Thread Phil Finkler 
I'm new to Linux, as I've been using Asterisk on FreeBSD via the ports
collection.  My question is simple - for using the release branch of
Asterisk (1.2.13 for now), should I get in the habit of using svn to
retrieve the source or should I just download the tarball?  Is there a
best practice or a recommended installation method?

 

Thanks in advance,

Phil

Debian, SuSE, Ubuntu and probably some other distributions (Fedora?)
have their own packages of Asterisk. This is basically the equivalent of
usingAsterisk from the ports collection.
