Thats correct, every time someone comes around suggesting we get package in the distro repos, I mention this needs to get done first and if someone wants to do the work on that then we can discuss what else is necessary to get packages upstream, and them everyone realizes its a lot of work and wanders off without offering to help, so it probably will never happen. I'm not sure it actually adds any value anyways. Mike On Sep 9, 2013, at 4:32 AM, Andrew Cassidy <andrew@cassidywebservices.co.uk> wrote:
Last I heard there were concerns around some of the custom patches to upstream libraries used in FreeSWITCH that was blocking getting packages into the official repo?
The other issue is by getting into debian repositories, we're pretty much obliged to backport security patches between debian releases.

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.
There was no discussion of Debian accepting packages or not. So, yeah, I would have missed that point.
I am quite thankful to the maintainers - and my advice is an attempt to help them get freeswitch into Debian.
They're making lots of progress in this area. Of course, any help is welcomed.
Best, Gabe
