Have you tried using ready made packages from master branch?
Find instruction here (look for master branch):
https://freeswitch.org/confluence/display/FREESWITCH/Debian+8+Jessie

>From Brian K West announce post:
FreeSWITCHers,

To help speed the testing and release cycle up, Team FreeSWITCH has created
a FreeSWITCH Unstable Debian repo, This repo is updated after every commit
to master and the debs lag behind about an hour from each commit.

WARNING this repo is untested and should NOT be used in production.

How to use this repo:

1. New Debian Jessie system
2. Run These Commands:

echo "deb http://files.freeswitch.org/repo/deb/debian-unstable/ jessie
main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/99FreeSWITCH.list
echo "deb http://files.freeswitch.org/repo/deb/debian/ jessie main" >>
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/99FreeSWITCH.list
wget -O - https://files.freeswitch.org/repo/deb/debian/key.gpg |apt-key add
-
apt-get update
apt-get install freeswitch-all

3. To update:

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

Any commit that goes in while the current build is running will be included
in the next build that starts.
