Digium realeased Asterisk in Version 1.8 with Long-Term-Support. This is the 1st approach of an appropriate ebuild. It's based on the v1.6 ebuild but pimped with new/more USE-flags, as there will be no more 'asterisk-addons' for the 1.8 branch. The ebuild compiles fine, but I'm sure that there is somethin' that needs loving. Also, please have a closer look to the remarks after RDEPEND.

Hello. Thanks for the ebuild Oliver. But it needs several improvements. For example format_mp3 and cdr_mysql modules are now included in this release. For mp3 to getting to work you have to run contrib/scripts/get_mp3_source.sh. That makes things a little bit difficult. Will report other findings. cheers t.

Ebuilds have to automatically fetch their sources; interactivity is not allowed. Neither is fetching anything outside out SRC_URI; so no MP3 support. Sorry. Same for iLBC.

I've done this for mp3 just for testing, but the patch reaches 110kb (26kb as gz). Another thing that might come into is patent/license-restriction for mp3 and ilbc...

The informal limit on in-tree patches is 20kb. > Another thing that might come into is patent/license-restriction for mp3 and > ilbc... This is the real reason for all the awkwardness with scripts. I can't risk running foul of license agreements, so unless you get written word from Digium that it is okay to patch MP3 support in with a compressed unified diff... there will be no MP3 support in Asterisk 1.8 in Gentoo. (This is an action on you, please file a new bug if you are successful)

We'll see...
