Doing a chown of something in /etc/ as part of a systemd service file
is totally broken. It's far too large a sledgehammer to point at /etc
here. Someone may legitimately not be using /etc/freeswitch/tls in
his configuration, in which case this chown would fail and cause FS to
fail to start. Or someone may legitimately need /etc/freeswitch/tls
to have different ownership, in which case we would clobber it here.
The right thing to do is to create this directory in the
postinst (which we already are, assuming there is not an existing
configuration) and then perform the chown of it at the same time.

This changes how we create the temporary directory /run/freeswitch
when starting FS with systemd. The /run directory starts empty after
a system reboot, so we need to ensure this directory is present.
Originally for the FS systemd unit we created /run/freeswitch using
ExecStartPre and mkdir. With commit adb5f0d this was changed to use
the tmpfiles.d(5) mechanism (but the ExecStartPre/mkdir code was not
removed).
As part of systemd.exec(5), systemd provides a mechanism to
automatically manage these directories under /run and to bind their
lifetime to the lifetime of the process. This is actually what we
want here as compared to the more general tmpfiles.d(5) mechanism.
This commit moves to using the RuntimeDirectory= mechanism and removes
the obsolete ExecStartPre/mkdir code.

We now break out each module and component of FreeSWITCH into a
separate individually-installable package. For each package with
executables or modules, we also build a package that includes the
stripped debugging symbols so that users can be helpful when they
discover bugs in FreeSWITCH.
As of this commit, we successfully build 263 distinct binary packages
starting from a clean minimal image on both Debian Sid and Debian
Squeeze.
To keep this manageable, we include a program that generates the
various Debian packaging files from a consolidated description of the
modules and their metadata. The program can even generate this
configuration file by walking the FreeSWITCH source tree.
To provide a smooth user experience, we provide meta-packages that
install sensible sets of modules and other components.
All files are installed into the traditional and customary Linux
directories that you would expect in accordance with the Filesystem
Hierarchy Standard (FHS).
This commit also adds support for running FreeSWITCH as a forked
systemd service in Debian.
For more information about the technical details of the source
packaging, how to build the binary packages from source, and how you
can contribute, please read debian/README.source.
To learn about how this packaging affects you as a user and how to use
the finished Debian packages, read debian/README.Debian.
