When I updated the installation instructions for Debian 7 I included symlinks between the FHS locations and the actual /usr/local/freeswitch directory locations.

Is this OK or frowned upon?

I figured this way no matter what gets installed either way it will be happy.

Please advise.

The file system layout depends on how FreeSWITCH is configured at compile time.

Packages are (and always have been) using the standard FHS layout as implemented by the distro that the packages are built for. (this is largely automatic because of the packaging building frame works that are provided for each distro.)

If you are building from source it still defaults to /usr/local/freeswitch based file system layout, however you can override that by passing the appropriate arguments to the configure script.

Hi All,

I understand that FS changed its directory structure to use a more standardized structure like/etc/freeswitch.  Does the v1.4 REPO (compiling from scratch ) still have the old structure or does it use the new structure?

Thanks,
Sean
