Hello. Please add the "doc" USE flag to the asterisk ebuild. There is a ton of solid, useful docs that Portage gives no direct access to. There is also a bunch of interesting items within the contrib/ tree. homeserver-02 doc # pwd /usr/portage/distfiles/asterisk-1.6.2.10/doc homeserver-02 doc # ls api-1.6.0-changes.odt datastores.txt jingle.txt siptls.txt api-1.6.2-changes.txt digium-mib.txt lang smdi.txt appdocsxml.dtd distributed_devstate.txt ldap.txt sms.txt asterisk.8 externalivr.txt macroexclusive.txt snmp.txt asterisk-mib.txt followme.txt manager_1_1.txt speechrec.txt asterisk.sgml google-soc2009-ideas.txt modules.txt ss7.txt backtrace.txt hoard.txt osp.txt tex building_queues.txt HOWTO_collect_debug_information.txt PEERING timing.txt callfiles.txt IAX2-security.pdf queue.txt unistim.txt chan_sip-perf-testing.txt IAX2-security.txt realtimetext.txt valgrind.txt cli.txt India-CID.txt res_config_sqlite.txt video_console.txt CODING-GUIDELINES jabber.txt rtp-packetization.txt video.txt database_transactions.txt janitor-projects.txt sip-retransmit.txt voicemail_odbc_postgresql.txt and, perhaps make the PDF in here: homeserver-02 tex # pwd /usr/portage/distfiles/asterisk-1.6.2.10/doc/tex homeserver-02 tex # ls ael.tex asterisk.out chaniax.tex hardware.tex mp3.tex README.txt ajam.tex asterisk.pdf channelvariables.tex ices.tex odbcstorage.tex realtime.tex app-sms.tex asterisk.tex cliprompt.tex imapstorage.tex phoneprov.tex security.tex asterisk asterisk.toc configuration.tex jitterbuffer.tex plc.tex sla.tex asterisk.aux asterisk.txt dundi.tex localchannel.tex privacy.tex asterisk-conf.tex backtrace.tex enum.tex Makefile qos.tex asterisk.dvi billing.tex extensions.tex manager.tex queuelog.tex asterisk.log cdrdriver.tex freetds.tex misdn.tex queues-with-callback-members.tex homeserver-02 tex # Heck, there's even neat stuff in contrib/: homeserver-02 contrib # pwd /usr/portage/distfiles/asterisk-1.6.2.10/contrib homeserver-02 contrib # ls asterisk-doxygen-header dictionary.digium festival-1.4.2.diff i18n.testsuite.conf scripts valgrind-RedHat-8.0.supp asterisk-ices.xml editors festival-1.4.3.diff init.d thirdparty valgrind.supp asterisk-ng-doxygen festival-1.4.1-diff festival-1.95.diff README.festival utils homeserver-02 contrib # Thanks! :)
Created attachment 247590 [details, diff] asterisk-doc-patch-331613.diff To be applied to current in-tree ebuild (asterisk-1.6.2.13.ebuild) file in order to add the documentation. I'm not seeing anything particularly useful in contrib/, but then again, I'm somewhat biased in this respect.
