These things are not relevant.  The 'make install' process for
zaptel-source is searching for the above file (udev/zaptel.rules-combined
in the zaptel source directory).  This directory + file exist in the CVS
version of the zaptel source archive, but have been purged from the
Debianized version of the source archive.  Regardless of what version of
udev or zaptel is installed, the outcome will not change.

Make install wants this file, and provides the above rule when 'make
install' is issued.  Regardless of what version of zaptel and udev exist,
an error such on the above (that kills the make install process) is bogus.

As for my comments on the missing documentation, fair enough.  However,
should not detailed information on the build process be left in the source
archive?  For example, there are descriptions on "make linux26" and so on,
provided by the install docs, that come with the source archive...

Placing them in another archive and removing them from this one, is hard
to understand. 


FYI..
