Description Reuben Farrelly 2017-06-04 13:22:50 UTC
Asterisk 13.16.0 has been released as of the start of June 2017 so this request is to have the package in the tree bumped from 13.14.0 to 13.16.0.

A quick attempt to do this by renaming the ebuild failed on account of a diff/patch error:

 * ERROR: net-misc/asterisk-13.16.0::x-portage failed (prepare phase):
 *   patch -p1  failed with /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/asterisk-13.16.0/work/asterisk-patchset/08-g729-vad-detection.patch

However this was the very last part of the patchset so hopefully this is relatively minor.

Release notes are here:

I have had good success with Asterisk 13.14.0 and recently 13.15.0 (same ebuild, just renamed to pick up the newer upstream code) so it looks like Asterisk 13.x is now becoming quite stable.
Comment 1 Thomas Deutschmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2017-06-04 21:43:49 UTC
I bumped the package to v13.15.1 (https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=ddf1da777ba1363c0c0aea3729a9a519d7da2ddc) due to bug 614738 and other vulnerabilities.

Please cry if something is broken.

In the meanwhile we will wait for Tony.

And by now Asterisk 13.17.0 has been released. Furthermore there is still a mask from 2015:

# Tony Vroon <chainsaw@gentoo.org> (5 Jan 2015)
# Asterisk 13 is an LTS release but has not seen
# sufficient releases to be considered ready for
# production usage. You are welcome to have a go
# but please be careful.
=net-misc/asterisk-13*

Now, please note that Asterisk 11 is EOL in two months time, see:

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Versions

The only thing I did experience when switching from Asterisk 11 to Asterisk 13 (using chan_sip) was the expected changes to parking. No more chan_sip related crashes as I did experience with Asterisk 11.

It is really time now to unmask Asterisk 13 with regards to chan_sip. As for pjproject I'd rather see first a Gentoo version bump to v2.6 which is expected by Asterisk (see third-party/versions.mak) before trying that (someone has to consider the patches to pjproject by Asterisk, too, see third-party/pjproject).

RTP bleed still unfixed, current LTS release (13.x) still masked from 2015 year.
11.x going EOL at october, so...
This package will be supported in future or we should search another methods for continue to use Asterisk?

This change has been upstreamed as SWP-6068 or ASTERISK-22294. Dropping from patchset.

It wasn't until PJproject had all the fixes applied, as this is heavily advertised for the 13 release. I will now unmask it.
Comment 6 Tony Vroon (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2017-09-19 00:20:31 UTC
13.17.0 in tree and unmasked.
