Bug#749024: Bad command line in init script

[James Cloos]

Package: asterisk
Version: 1:11.9.0~dfsg-1
Severity: important

Today’s update breaks /etc/init.d/asterisk.

It passes $ETCDIR (/etc/asterisk) as the value for the -C option when
starting asterisk.

The -C option specifies a file, not a directory.

The easy, short-term workaround is to add:

ETCDIR=/etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf

to /etc/default/asterisk.

If the init script wants to use -C and ETCDIR, it should pass

	-C ${ETCDIR}/asterisk.conf
