python2.3 is also not a shared lib. Well, zaptel has library components
(like libtonezone), so it even is a library. Anyway, I think that naming
should not be an issue.

Yes, that's what I also find pretty bewildering. And right now I'm not
entirely sure what the correct fix is for both 1.4 and 1.2 series.

Yes. Tzafrir, can you verify what the combination is that actually works
and how we sort this issue out best? I mean, can we even go with
libpri1.4 for asterisk 1.2 instead of putting another libpri1.2 in?

SCUD isn't as actively autobuilt for the most part. That's what for now
buildserver.net is for. From there if the packages are greatly useful
and if asterisk 1.2 upstream support will hold up still, now that 1.6 is
announced at the horizon, we can also upload some versions to SID or
SCUD. Yet I think they'll rather confuse people than actually help the
masses. For those few who actually do want to stick to 1.2 for now, the
download from pkg-voip.buildserver.net will be fine enough, I'm sure.
