[Freeswitch-users] Building on Ubuntu Intrepid

[dujinfang]

Thanks.

I was thinking  created a new server with Ubuntu intrepid, seems I'd  
like back to  Hardy.
Even on hardy the default libtool is version 2. replace to libtool 1  
should be easy as I mentioned before.

On ubuntu it's libncurses5-dev, use for simple's sake.

we don't use openzap. Is the probably 1000 all in the openzap or  
anywhere else potentially?.

As you mentioned. It's not their fault. ppl want to live on the edge  
just need to install multi-versions of gcc(or other tools). Like the  
Linux kernel, to compile from source, gcc-3 was recommended for a long  
time. Don't know if it's still the case recently.
