Asterisk v 1.8 on Centos6

I have a need to install asterisk 1.8 in a Centos 6 system using yum. I have a repo defined:

[asterisk-1.8] name=CentOS-$releasever - Asterisk 1.8 baseurl=http://packages.asterisk.org/centos/$releasever/asterisk-1.8/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 #gpgkey=http://packages.asterisk.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-Digium
This repo doesn’t work as the path [quote]http://packages.asterisk.org/centos/6/asterisk-1.8/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml[/quote] does not exist.

The repo for Centos 5 is still there. Is there an alternative for Centos 6?

I’ve seen how I can build my own using http://linuxmoz.com/asterisk-centos-6-install-guide/ but if I’m going to build my own I still need to build to rpm’s and create my own local repo.

Ok I’m pretty confident now there are no RPM’s for asterisk 1.8 on Centos 6.

This works:

This version is in EPEL repository

After repo is installed:

Thats all!
