I know about those packages. Questions is how do we use those packages to build our own RPM. We use asterisk SVN trunk.

If you want a self contained Asterisk environment, complete with logging directory, modules directory, configuration directory and whatever, and even with a wrapper script called asterisk, look at http://bugs.digium.com/11680 for live_ast But all of this does not but you independence from library dependencies.

Just copy the src folder and do `make install` on each machine? Then tar and copy the /etc/asterisk folder if config is important too.

I am sure there is a way but I could find it. What system, specifically? With what libraries installed? Which of them are installed on the target system? rpm, deb and such automate much of the process. Chances are that there is already an existing such binary package for your distribution.

[asterisk-users] Creating Asterisk Binary Package
Is there a script to create an Asterisk binary package after it is compiled on one system. We do not want to compile Asterisk of each system where we want to run. I am sure there is a way but I could find it.
