Environment:OS: Fedora F25Attachments:( 0) install_prereq
Description:The instell_prereq script fails to run on Fedora, due to two minor package naming differences between RedHat/CentOS and Fedora. The two packages in question are (RH equivalent->Fedora equivalent):

* gmime22-devel -> gmime-devel
* radiusclient-ng-devel -> freeradius-client-devel

In addition, there is one additional package that is required for Asterisk to run properly on Fedora: redhat-rpm-config. I have created a patch to the install_prereq script which installs these three packages when Fedora is properly detected on the machine. With this patch, Asterisk can be successfully installed, configured, started, and used on a local machine running Fedora F25.

Steps to reproduce:

# Install Fedora F25
# Download Asterisk 14.4.0 tarball and extract
# run: './contrib/scripts/install_prereq install'

Patch will be attached.

Hi Rusty,

Thanks for the quick response. I am trying to log into Gerrit, but it appears that my Atlassian credentials have not yet synced to the Asterisk OpenID site.
