About
Debian 8 "Jessie" is the reference platform for
FreeSWITCH™ as of version 1.6 and is STRONGLY recommended for all applications due to its stability and broad support for the system libraries needed by FreeSWITCH.
2016.02.14 — Please note this important change that went into Master today. As of today, we are no longer using system versions of libyuv and libvpx due to major conflicts with system versions of these libraries. These are now built static into the freeswitch core. Also note, mod_vpx no longer exists, it is automatically loaded as part of the core and you will no longer have mod_vpx.so nor have to load it manually. I'll have more details coming, but let me know if you have any questions.
Please note for anyone doing cross compiling, this probably means a bit more work for you, I'll be working on fixing that this week.

Building Debian packages from master branch
WARNING not suitable for production
The master branch depends on video libraries which are not available as packages in Debian distribution, but are available from FreeSWITCH repository. Thus, you will need internet access to the FreeSWITCH DEB repository.

Note that when installed from packages (as in "latest release branch") the binaries are located in "/usr/bin/freeswitch" (It should also be possible to just use "freeswitch" - double check with "which").
