[chan-capi-users] Call Deflection stopped working

Hi Armin,

thanks for your response.

I made some backported packages for Debian etch a while ago and did not
have any need to upgrade. :)

Calling capiinfo from the command line I get:

Looks like the controller is reporting that it is capable of 'Call
Deflection'. Or did I get something wrong?

Is it possible to debug the 'chan_capi controller profile read' to find
out what's going on?

Not that I am aware of. But as I do not know when exactly it broke....

Thanks,
