What else is nessesery to do for installing asterisk using cvs, in this case .
Thank you

P.S. also I'll be very thankfull if you could give me advise ,
as generaly for a bigginer in this subgect.

А asterisk давно уже в SVN'е.

debian:/usr/src# svn checkout http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/trunk asterisk
bash: svn: command not found
debian:/usr/src#

I've tried it already, ^.
Probably there is something else to do?!

apt-get install svn ?

# apt-get install svn - didn't find the packeges, so
# apt-cache search svn . . .and so on

THANK YOUUUUUU!
