My take is 286 packages is too many. Compare it to Apache - lots of complicated bits can be added - but the package count isn't even close.
Why is that too many? Being granular is a good thing.
I think you are missing my point - Debian will not accept 280 packages for freeswitch. Ask the ftp-masters. The packaging system is not intended to provide fine-grained granularity. Apache is quite granular - and still has a nice clean package set. You might look how they use the a2enmod to enable modules. The granularity is already a function of /etc/freeswitch/autoload_configs/modules.conf.xml
Besides, you can usually install with one command anyway. I think it's a great thing and thank the maintainers for going to all the trouble.
I am quite thankful to the maintainers - and my advice is an attempt to help them get freeswitch into Debian. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Karl Schmidt EMail Karl@xtronics.com Transtronics, Inc.
