Main Inclusion Report for `zaptel`

1. Availability: Zaptel is in universe, Arch: any

2. Rationale: As with bug #18175, Zaptel cards connect to POTS/BRI/PRI lines, and are generally used with SIP servers to route calls as a far less expensive PBX. It has particularly strong support in the Asterisk userbase, and including this would go a long way towards having really good Asterisk support in main.

3. Security:

   • No CANs found by daniels (it's a new program)

4. Quality assurance:

   • Maintained by the Debian VoIP team
   • Two unreproducible FTBFS bugs in Debian, awaiting more information. One of them only applies to the version in experimental. A few other bugs, but seem to be resolved rather rapidly.
   • Requires exotic hardware which takes effort to support.

5. Standards compliance:

   • The package meets the FHS.

6. Dependencies:

   • (none)

Reviewers

MartinPitt: Similar to MainInclusionReportAsterisk, this package requires someone who knows the package well, has the necessary hardware, and commits to maintain it for a longer term. If there is an approved Ubuntu specification that requires this package, then I will reconsider, but for now I rather want to not burn our hands with it.
