Package: asterisk<br>Version: 1:<a href="http://1.4.19.1">1.4.19.1</a>~dfsg-1<br clear="all"><br>I am using popular backticks command on asterisk. The command is described in detail at following URLs<br><a href="http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+cmd+Backticks">http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+cmd+Backticks</a><br>
<a href="http://henryjunior.com/blog/?p=18">http://henryjunior.com/blog/?p=18</a><br><br>Unfortunately, the corresponding shared object is not packaged in debian asterisk package. I have compiled the module manually and confirm that it works.<br>
<br>For some reason there is no astxs script anywhere, so it took me some time to understand how to compile the backticks.so module.<br>Compile the attached file backticks.c using following commands:<br>gcc -c -fPIC backticks.c -o backticks.o<br>
gcc -shared -Wl,-soname,backticks.so -o backticks.so backticks.o<br><br>Then package the resulting backticks.so into modules directory /usr/lib/asterisk/modules/<br><br>-- <br>Arie<br><br>
