libopenh323-dev is in squeeze and sid, but it doesn't look like it's
going to make it into wheezy at this point.
H323Plus claims to be a drop-in replacement, but this should probably
be tested thoroughly.
Note that mod_h323 is still in the avoid_mods list pending testing to
verify that it builds cleanly on each target.

The iLBC library in our tree is non-free software. Google has
purchased Global IP Sound and released a newer version of this library
as part of WebRTC as free software, but we need to upgrade to take
advantage of this more favorable licensing.
Until we do that, we also need to remove libs/ilbc from the Debian
source packaging.
Despite the relatively-generous patent grant from Polycom, the
requirement to execute further agreements to use the code and patents
means this module fails the DFSG.
We'll need to exclude this code from the source package as well.
We now break out each module and component of FreeSWITCH into a
separate individually-installable package. For each package with
executables or modules, we also build a package that includes the
stripped debugging symbols so that users can be helpful when they
discover bugs in FreeSWITCH.
As of this commit, we successfully build 263 distinct binary packages
starting from a clean minimal image on both Debian Sid and Debian
Squeeze.
To keep this manageable, we include a program that generates the
various Debian packaging files from a consolidated description of the
modules and their metadata. The program can even generate this
configuration file by walking the FreeSWITCH source tree.
To provide a smooth user experience, we provide meta-packages that
install sensible sets of modules and other components.
All files are installed into the traditional and customary Linux
directories that you would expect in accordance with the Filesystem
Hierarchy Standard (FHS).
This commit also adds support for running FreeSWITCH as a forked
systemd service in Debian.
For more information about the technical details of the source
packaging, how to build the binary packages from source, and how you
can contribute, please read debian/README.source.
To learn about how this packaging affects you as a user and how to use
the finished Debian packages, read debian/README.Debian.
