[asterisk-users] Asterisk Centos RPM packages question

2011-10-17 Thread Ioan Indreias
Hello,

Trying to upgrade (from asterisk18-1.8.6.0-1) to the latest RPM
version from Asterisk repo I found that asterisknow-version is needed
by package asterisk18-core-1.8.7.0-2

How could this be explained?

Best regards,
Ioan

The asterisknow-version package contains the repository files (see
/etc/yum.repos.d/) for the repositories on packages.asterisk.org and
packages.digium.com.  Installing this should have been in the setup 
instructions.

The repository layout has changed significantly, and people that didn't install
this package would have been stuck on old versions of Asterisk.  We opted to add
this package as a dependency (as it should have always been one) to resolve that
issue.


Short version: This is intentional.

Thanks Jason for the quick answer - I was fooled by the name chosen
for this package (asterisknow). Everything is clear now.

Best regards,
Ioan.
