Package: asterisk
Version: 1:1.6.2.5-0ubuntu1
Severity: normal


Dahdi installation has many impacts :
- It requires to rebuild the kernel module (long process)
- It depends on many unuseful packages for the build (download time, disk 
space)
- It has to download some parts (need full internet access or configuring 
wget when behind a proxy)
And the most important part is that not every people using Asterisk need 
Dhadi!

Please can you split the package so there is no Dhadi dependency on the 
base package.

Thanks
