Bug#389591: status update
Hello,
I have started to work on this.
There is a patch in
http://jira.freeswitch.org/browse/FSBUILD-279
that fixes several small issues.
Among other things, the source format was upgraded to 3.0 (quilt). This
allows more flexibility in patching things specifically for one distro or
another.
Upstream authors are going to keep linking statically to their own copies
of libs and want to remain able to build a .deb package this way, so this
should be taken into account when submitting changes to them. Also they do
not want to hear about bugs that cannot be reproduced with their own static
libs.
As a first step I am currently working on a debian-specific patch to remove
the dependency on the local copy of sqlite. This copy could then be
excluded from the orig tarball. The same approach can probably be used for
most of the other libraries in there.
Next I plan to implement configurable filesystem layouts in main configure
script to avoid things in /opt.
