# Building FreeSWITCH packages using `FSDEB`
+## Install build dependencies first
+In order to build FreeSWITCH packages first you need to install build dependencies. There are two ways:
+* [From our FreeSWITCH Debian repository](#install-build-dependencies-from-repo) (using [FSGET](/scripts/packaging) for example) - the simplest way
+* [Manually compile the build dependencies](#manually-compile-build-dependencies)
+
+
+### Configuring FreeSWITCH Debian repo (for dependencies)
+Since we are building a FreeSWITCH release let's configure FreeSWITCH Community Release Debian repo.
+We recommend using [FSGET](/scripts/packaging).
+
+Replace `` with your `SignalWire Personal Access Token (PAT)`
+[HOWTO Create a SignalWire Personal Access Token](https://developer.signalwire.com/freeswitch/FreeSWITCH-Explained/Installation/how-to-create-a-personal-access-token/how-to-create-a-personal-access-token)
+```bash
+curl -sSL https://freeswitch.org/fsget | bash -s
+```
+Configuring the repo is enough. Dependencies will be installed during the FreeSWITCH building process.
+
+
+### Manually compile the build dependencies
+Just follow this [Dependency Building Guide](dependencies/README.md) without the need to set up the FreeSWITCH Debian repo.
+Although we recommend using the FreeSWITCH Debian repo as all the dependencies are already prebuilt for you.

## Prerequisites
-FreeSWITCH packages can be built when FreeSWITCH is cloned using `git` only.

+# FreeSWITCH Build Dependencies
+
+This directory is organized into subfolders, where each subfolder contains build instructions for a single Debian package. These packages are dependencies required to build FreeSWITCH's Debian packages.
+
+## Recommended order of building:
+
+- [libbroadvoice](libbroadvoice/README.md)
+- [libilbc](libilbc/README.md)
+- [libsilk](libsilk/README.md)
+- [spandsp](spandsp/README.md)
+- [sofia-sip](sofia-sip/README.md)
+- [libks](libks/README.md)
+- [signalwire-c](signalwire-c/README.md)
+- [libv8](libv8/README.md) (only for `AMD64`)
+
+## Build Dependencies Script
+
+A convenient script `build-dependencies.sh` is provided to automate the building of dependencies. This script offers several options to customize the build process.
+
+### Usage
+
+```bash
+./build-dependencies.sh [options] [library_names...]
+```
+
+### Options
+
+- `-h, --help`: Show the help message
+- `-b, --build-number N`: Set build number (default: 42 or env value)
+- `-a, --all`: Build all libraries
+- `-s, --setup`: Set up build environment before building
+- `-o, --output DIR`: Set output directory (default: /var/local/deb)
+- `-p, --prefix DIR`: Set source path prefix (default: /usr/src)
+- `-r, --repo`: Set up local repository after building
+- `-c, --clone`: Clone required repositories before building
+- `-g, --git-https`: Use HTTPS instead of SSH for git cloning
+
+### Examples
+
+Set up environment, clone repositories, and build all dependencies:
+```bash
+./build-dependencies.sh --build-number 123 --setup --all --repo --clone
+```
+
+Complete build with all options (setup environment, build all libraries, create local repo, clone repos with HTTPS):
+```bash
+./build-dependencies.sh --build-number 123 --setup --all --repo --clone --git-https
+```
+
+Build specific libraries with full automation:
+```bash
+./build-dependencies.sh --build-number 123 --setup --repo --clone --git-https libks signalwire-c
+```
+
+### Running in Docker
+
+You can run the build script inside a Docker container for a clean, isolated build environment:
+
+```bash
+docker run -it -v $(pwd):/root/scripts debian:bookworm bash -c "cd /root/scripts && bash"
+```

+# Building `libbroadvoice` Debian Package
+
+This guide explains how to build the `libbroadvoice` Debian package.
+
+## Prerequisites:
+- Git
+- Debian-based system (native or Docker)
+
+## Build Steps
+
+### Clone the repository:
+```bash
+git clone git@github.com:freeswitch/libbroadvoice.git
+```
+
+### (Optionally) Use Docker to build packages for Debian `Bookworm`:
+```bash
+docker run -it -v $(pwd):/usr/src/ debian:bookworm bash -c "cd /usr/src/ && bash"
+```
+
+### Set non-interactive frontend for APT:
+```bash
+export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
+```
+
+### Install required build tools:
+```bash
+apt-get update \
+&& apt-get -y upgrade \
+&& apt-get -y install \
+ build-essential \
+ cmake \
+ devscripts \
+ lsb-release \
+ docbook-xsl \
+ pkg-config
+```
+
+### Set build number (modify as needed):
+```bash
+export BUILD_NUMBER=42
+```
+> Note: The build number (42) used in this guide is arbitrary. You can modify it as needed for your build process.
+
+### Set Debian codename:
+```bash
+export CODENAME=$(lsb_release -sc)
+```
+
+### Configure git safety setting:
+```bash
+git config --global --add safe.directory '*'
+```
+
+### Navigate to the source directory:
+```bash
+cd libbroadvoice/
+```
+-- or --
+```bash
+cd /usr/src/libbroadvoice/
+```
+
+### Extract Debian package version:
+```bash
+export VERSION=$(dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field Version | cut -f1 -d'-')
+```
+
+### Extract git hash:
+```bash
+export GIT_SHA=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)
+```
+
+### Install build dependencies:
+```bash
+apt-get update \
+&& mk-build-deps \
+ --install \
+ --remove debian/control \
+ --tool "apt-get -y --no-install-recommends" \
+&& apt-get -y -f install
+```
+
+### Update changelog:
+```bash
+dch \
+ --controlmaint \
+ --distribution "${CODENAME}" \
+ --force-bad-version \
+ --force-distribution \
+ --newversion "${VERSION}-${BUILD_NUMBER}-${GIT_SHA}~${CODENAME}" \
+ "Nightly build, ${GIT_SHA}"
+```
+
+### Build binary package:
+```bash
+debuild \
+ --no-tgz-check \
+ --build=binary \
+ --unsigned-source \
+ --unsigned-changes
+```
+
+### Move built packages to the output directory:
+```bash
+mkdir -p OUT \
+&& mv -v ../*.{deb,changes} OUT/.
+```
+-- or --
+```bash
+mkdir -p /usr/src/OUT \
+&& mv -v ../*.{deb,changes} /usr/src/OUT/.
+```
+
+## Output
+
+After a successful build, the Debian packages will be available in the `OUT` directory.

+# Building `libks` Debian Package
+
+This guide explains how to build the `libks` Debian package.
+
+## Prerequisites:
+- Git
+- Debian-based system (native or Docker)
+
+## Build Steps
+
+### Clone the repository:
+```bash
+git clone git@github.com:signalwire/libks.git
+```
+
+### (Optionally) Use Docker to build packages for Debian `Bookworm`:
+```bash
+docker run -it -v $(pwd):/usr/src/ debian:bookworm bash -c "cd /usr/src/ && bash"
+```
+
+### Set non-interactive frontend for APT:
+```bash
+export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
+```
+
+### Install required build tools:
+```bash
+apt-get update \
+&& apt-get -y upgrade \
+&& apt-get -y install \
+ build-essential \
+ cmake \
+ devscripts \
+ lsb-release \
+ docbook-xsl \
+ pkg-config
+```
+
+### Set build number (modify as needed):
+```bash
+export BUILD_NUMBER=42
+```
+> Note: The build number (42) used in this guide is arbitrary. You can modify it as needed for your build process.
+
+### Set Debian codename:
+```bash
+export CODENAME=$(lsb_release -sc)
+```
+
+### Configure git safety setting:
+```bash
+git config --global --add safe.directory '*'
+```
+
+### Navigate to the source directory:
+```bash
+cd libks/
+```
+-- or --
+```bash
+cd /usr/src/libks/
+```
+
+### Extract git hash:
+```bash
+export GIT_SHA=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)
+```
+
+### Install build dependencies:
+```bash
+apt-get update \
+&& apt-get -y install \
+ libssl-dev \
+ uuid-dev
+```
+
+### Build binary package:
+```bash
+PACKAGE_RELEASE="${BUILD_NUMBER}.${GIT_SHA}" cmake . \
+ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug \
+ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="/usr" \
+&& make package
+```
+
+### Move built packages to the output directory:
+```bash
