[Freeswitch-dev] Proper FreeSWITCH Debian repos for Jessie/Stretch installs
by Chad Phillips 06 Nov '18

I build FreeSWITCH from source for videoconferencing. As I’m updating from 1.6 to 1.8, I’m noticing the custom FreeSWITCH Debian repo arrangement is a bit confusing. At http://files.freeswitch.org/repo/deb/ we currently have: debian-unstable/ 15-Jul-2016 14:26 debian.old/ 16-Apr-2015 13:20 debian/ 07-Sep-2015 22:44 freeswitch-1.4/ 07-Sep-2015 22:44 freeswitch-1.6-testing/ 08-Feb-2017 17:09 freeswitch-1.6/ 28-Sep-2015 15:21 freeswitch-1.8/ 30-Jun-2017 15:18 When building for Jessie, I expected to just include the freeswitch-1.8 repo and ‘apt-get install freeswitch-video-deps-most’, but that fails because that repo has no Jessie distribution built. Then I tried debian-unstable, and that failed due to dependency conflicts. I finally got it working by using both the debian-unstable and freeswitch-1.6 repos with ‘apt-get install freeswitch-video-deps-most’, but this seems incorrect for a FreeSWITCH 1.8 install. Which leads to a couple of questions: - Are we missing a Jessie dist build for the freeswitch-1.8 repo, or is that intended? - What are the correct repo/repos to use when building 1.8 on Jessie? - What are the correct repo/repos to use when building 1.8 on Stretch? - Is ‘freeswitch-video-deps-most’ still the correct meta package?
