Package: asterisk Version: 1:13.12.2~dfsg-2 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
The package dahdi (of source package dahdi-tools) includes the directory /usr/share/dahdi/span_config.d/ for scripts that get called (from udev, through a hook script) when a new DAHDI span appears. The allow applying custom operations on the span. As of version 1:2.10.0.1-1 of dahdi (now in Jessie) the Debian package has removed the hook that registers spans with Asterisk automatically[1] because this is the job of the Asterisk package (DAHDI should not tie itself to Asterisk). Thus this script should be added to Asterisk. If one wants to avoid a file conflict with dahdi <= 1:2.10.2-1 (pre-jessie versions), it should be safe to use the name '40-asterisk': * Calling the script twice (in case that older version installed) has a small performance issue, but nothing more. * This number (40) is already used in some unofficial packages used by the company I work for. I recommend to add it to the main package (asterisk) and not to asterisk-dahdi for the sake of simplicity: it does not add any real dependency on dahdi.
