493: Undecipherable

Patch a asterisk module without breaking package management on Ubuntu

I needed to modify one module (chan_sip) of Asterisk, but was to lazy to download and install Asterisk manually.

• Install build-tools

  apt-get install build-essential

• Get the source and build dependencies

  apt-get source asterisk apt-get build-dep asterisk

• Patch or do whatever you wanted.
• Re-compile Asterisk

  dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b

• Install the Asterisk module

  cp channels/chan_sip.so /usr/lib/asterisk/modules/

PS: Was done on Ubuntu 13.10 and Ubuntu 14.04.
