[Bug 383465] [NEW] Asterisk fails to start when AST_REALTIME is enabled

[Mike Miller]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: asterisk

I'm running Ubuntu Jaunty on a VPS, using a slightly modified kernel
(2.6.29-linode18). I installed asterisk (version 1:1.4.21.2~dfsg-
3ubuntu), but the asterisk service fails to start; giving an error of

Unable to setuid to 110 (asterisk)

If I add some extra debug, I get:

If I edit /etc/default/asterisk and disable AST_REALTIME, then it
starts.
