Install mediaproxy-ng on Debian based systems

This is a variation of my original post on how to install mediaproxy-ng on rpm based operating systems.

This one goes for the Debian/Ubuntu users, which are a plenty out there.

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/sipwise/mediaproxy-ng.git

2. Install compilation dependencies

apt-get install build-essential iptables-dev debhelper libcurl4-openssl-dev libglib2.0-dev libglib2.0-0 libxmlrpc-c++4 libxmlrpc-c++4-dev linux-kbuild-3.2 linux-headers-3.2.0-4-common linux-headers-$(uname -r) module-assistant

3. Go to mediaproxy-ng directory and build the Debian packages

cd mediaproxy-ng/ && dpkg-buildpackage -d

4. Go back to the parent directory. It should contain a series of .deb files. Install them all

dpkg -i *.deb

5. If everything went OK, a message similar to this should appear on the console:

DKMS: install completed.
mediaproxy-ng not yet configured. Edit /etc/default/ngcp-mediaproxy-ng-daemon first.
Setting up ngcp-mediaproxy-ng-kernel-source (2.3.5) ...
Setting up ngcp-mediaproxy-ng (2.3.5) ...
Setting up ngcp-mediaproxy-ng-dbg (2.3.5) ...

That is pretty much it, quick and straightforward, maybe because the Sipwise guys love Debian more than any other Linux distribution 😉
