Ubuntu: package installed, but files missing?
- by jeckyll2hide
I have been playing around with the /etc/asterisk directory, installing the related pacakge (asterisk-config), removing it, removing the directory manually (just playing around to get the configuration synced to my configuration repo). Now I just want to reinstall the official package, so I do:
root@tethys:/etc# apt-get install asterisk-config
root@tethys:/etc# tree asterisk/
asterisk/
+-- manager.d
What?! Empty?!? Have I installed it?
root@tethys:/etc# dpkg --get-selections | grep asterisk
asterisk install
asterisk-config install
asterisk-core-sounds-en install
asterisk-core-sounds-en-gsm install
asterisk-modules install
asterisk-moh-opsound-gsm install
asterisk-voicemail install
Indeed! Let me check the contents of the package:
root@tethys:/etc# dpkg -L asterisk-config
...
/etc
/etc/asterisk
/etc/asterisk/res_snmp.conf
/etc/asterisk/dbsep.conf
/etc/asterisk/cel_custom.conf
/etc/asterisk/cel.conf
/etc/asterisk/meetme.conf
/etc/asterisk/jingle.conf
/etc/asterisk/queuerules.conf
...
So, what have I done that the package will get installed, but the contents are nowhere to be seen?
And, more importantly, how can I force the contents to be installed, no matter what I have done before?
