Asterisk Speaks with Google Talk

I am very pleased to announce that Asterisk now speaks with Google Talk using the jingle protocol.
I do not know if any of you have been able to do it, but we have. Farrukh Ahmed can be contacted via gmail [email protected] if you want him to install it on your asterisk. Farrukh Ahmed is an independent Asterisk Linux Guy, and does not work for supertec.com

Note: Asterisk 1.4 has this jabber/gtalk support on board.

Download Latest Asterisk Source from SVN Trunk

cd /usr/src
svn checkout http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/trunk asterisk

Note: If you have Digium Cards then you need Zaptel

svn checkout http://svn.digium.com/svn/zaptel/trunk zaptel

Note: If you have PRI/BRI then you need Libpri

svn checkout http://svn.digium.com/svn/libpri/trunk libpri

Download iksemel

To run autogen.sh you must have several packages, it will prompt you for the packages except for libgnutls-dev if you don’t
have this it will generate an error message in configure.

svn checkout http://svn.uludag.org.tr/projeler/iksemel iksemel

cd iksemel
./autogen.sh
./configure –prefix=/usr
make
make check
make install

For installation on ubuntu 7.10 you need execute before:
“apt-get install libgnutls-dev texinfo”

edit:

ikesemel deprecated

just brokw my head here for the whole day to find out that the iksemel was not working propperly for ubuntu 10.10 so I dug around and found that there is a newer version at http://code.google.com/p/iksemel/downloads/list , untar, and follow the instructions as decribed, thanks
