Actually if you want to roll your own RPMs from FS source for master, its pretty easy

First set up all the pre-req devel packages (with yum)

Checkout the source from git as normal, then run the following 3 scripts from the root of your FS source tree

./scripts/ci/src_tarball.sh ${version_number}   ;# replace version number with your version number... I suggest using the one in configure.in
./scripts/ci/get_extra_sources.sh               ;# this will get any extra sources you need
./scripts/ci/rpmbuilder.sh  ${version_number} ${build_number}  ;# make the version number the same as above, make the build number increment each time you build the same version

RPMs will be dropped in the RPMS dir in your FS source tree, then use yum/rpm to install them as normal. If you have already installed the sound files you are fine... Same with your configs...

Thanks Steven, i can only say that i'm aware of that as a possibility but with 100 things on the to-do that one sounds a little daunting. Out of interest is there a guide that you are aware of? I would certainly add this as task 101 :)

You could build your own RPMs from git head then upgrade to those versions.

I have a simple Monday morning query - if i've installed FreeSWITCH using RPM's and have now decided to remove the application and use the git head - is there a simple way to do this?

I'm pretty much a novice so far as Linux administration so my approach would be as follows:

List the packages: 

rpm -qa | grep -i freeswitch
freeswitch-1.2.14-1.el6.x86_64
freeswitch-application-snom-1.2.14-1.el6.x86_64
freeswitch-appl....
...
... (x30)

Remove them all one at a time using 
rpm -e  freeswitch-1.2.14-1.el6.x86_64

Proceed with GIT install. Is there a cleaner/easier approach?

Thanks.
