Upgrading/Downgrading Asterisk

Upgrading or downgrading Asterisk should be done only if really needed. Asterisk relies on a series of libraries and different Asterisk versions may need different library versions.

A simple script to upgrade Asterisk is provided as protected/installAsterisk.sh

To upgrade to latest version 20, you can just run

 cp protected/installAsterisk.sh /usr/local/src
 cd /usr/local/src
 ./installAsterisk 20-current

If you want to upgrade to a specific asterisk version, you can provide it as

 ./installAsterisk 20.12.0
