Jonas, My expectations and understanding of how things work in Debian were way off.
My frustration and entitlement were loud and misdirected and I apologize for that, you've been extremely patient. It is very easy for a person to use Debian software for years without understanding anything that happens inside this community. One can visit the home page, click download, and you are off to the races. apt-get install asterisk just works and you can get things done. Then one day apt-get install asterisk doesn't work anymore, and that only happens when things are dire. The road to getting it back is not anything like the ISO click or apt-get. Because I put it in my business, I was looking for a quick fix. But there isn't a quick fix here. It needs serious help from multiple DMs. Thank you for keeping it going. Martin
