Arch Linux User Repository

PSA: I've started hosting this and all its dependencies as prebuilt packages (x86_86 only) in my repository for those that want to install them using pacman without messing around with building from the AUR.

I think optdep should be lua instead of lua51

I was able to upgrade from asterisk-lts-20 to asterisk-22.0.0-1 using this PKGBUILD. One thing I noticed, it replaced all my existing configuration in /etc/asterisk/ with .pacsave; which is a little annoying. I would have preferred the new files get added as .pacnew; is there any way to correct that? I don't have time to research the fix and supply a patch myself, so I apologize in advance if that is impolite to ask.

I was able to fix this with an anonymous zsh script, as root:

# for conf in *.pacsave; do 
    print ${conf}
    orig=$(basename ${conf} .pacsave)
    print ${orig}
    mv -v ${conf} ${orig}
done

Incidentally I just pushed asterisk-lts-22 to the AUR; it depends on asterisk>=22, and asterisk<23. Next year when asterisk 23.0.0 is released (circa mid-October 2025), the asterisk-lts-22 PKGBUILD will be replaced with the latest PKGBUILD from asterisk on version 22 which is the latest LTS release until the release of 24 in 2026 (assuming Sangoma doesn't drastically change the established release cycle before then).

Thanks @severach! patch added.

The update of third-party/{pjproject,versions.mak} from 2.12.1 to 2.13 is detecting libupnp on the system, usually from vlc, found on desktop systems, not found on Asterisk servers. This changes pjnath to -DPJNATH_HAS_UPNP=1 which causes -lupnp -lixml. Fix with this patch.

20.2.0-1 does not compile on my box (because: libasteriskpj.so does not have a link to libupnp.so?):

I can confirm that the following git diff successfully upgrades asterisk to 20.2.0:

I forgot to mention, Asterisk 19.7.0 was released today as well, but I flagged this package saying that Asterisk 20.0.0 was released today.

As soon as this package is updated to Asterisk 20, I plan on submitting the asterisk-lts-20 PKGBUILD, which for now will be a meta package that depends on asterisk >= 20, but <21. As soon as Asterisk 21 is released next year, I will replace asterisk-lts-20 with the latest copy of the asterisk PKGBUILD on version 20, whatever that may be.
