Package: asterisk-gtk-console
Version: 1:1.0.2-2
Severity: normal
There is no documentation that relates the asterisk-gtk-console to the
pbx_gtkconsole.so module. While I was a little persistant - I ended up
locating the voip maintainers list archive, downloading it, importing it
into Evolution, then searching for console. (This is likely further than
most would go :-)
Suggestion #1:
README.Debian
This package provides the pbx_gtkconsole.so module. You can activate it
in /etc/asterisk/modules.conf by adding the following line:
load => pbx_gtkconsole.so
In case you're wondering why this package is separate, it's because
otherwise a perfectly console based PBX application would also require X.
Suggestion #2:
Add a similar text to the package description.
Final feedback - completely unrelated to this report:
I installed Asterisk yesterday and it just worked. Thanks. (Now all we need
is some help with figuring out how and why it works :-)
