asterisk users - Mar 2010 - Which folder for sounds?

1.6.2:

So in which folder are these sounds supposed to be?

But more importantly, who do we figure out where * is looking for 
sounds? Some cli command would be really nice.

You did see the above, did you.

Did you maybe upgrade from 1.2 to 1.6? Taken from UPGRADE.txt on a 1.4 
system:

"WARNING: Asterisk 1.4 supports a new layout for sound files in multiple 
languages; instead of the alternate-language files being stored in 
subdirectories underneath the existing files (for French, that would be 
digits/fr, letters/fr, phonetic/fr, etc.) the new layout creates one 
directory under /var/lib/asterisk/sounds for the language itself, then 
places all the sound files for that language under that directory and its 
subdirectories. This is the layout that will be created if you select non-
English languages to be installed via menuselect, HOWEVER Asterisk does 
not default to this layout and will not find the files in the places it 
expects them to be. If you wish to use this layout, make sure you put 
'languageprefix=yes' in your /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf file, so that 
Asterisk will know how the files were installed."

As long as it is not enabled, the compile-time defaults are used.

Unless you specifid the full path explicitly, the sound files are looked
for in the following pathes (in the following order). Suppose you wanted
the sound file called:  'somewhere/soundname'

  DATADIR/sounds/LANG_FULL/somewhere/soundname
  DATADIR/sounds/LANG/somewhere/soundname
  DATADIR/sounds/somewhere/soundname
  DATADIR/sounds/DEFAULTLANG/soundname

DATADIR defaults to /var/lib/asterisk (unless you use the Debian/Ubuntu
packages...) and can be set in asterisk.conf otherwise.

LANG_FULL is the complete value of LANGUAGE, if it is set. LANG is the
value of LANGUAGE sliced after the first '_'. For instance, if LANG_FULL
was 'en_US_Whatever', LANG will be 'en'.

DEFAULTLANG defaults to 'en' and can be set to a default value in
asterisk.conf. Normally people don't change it.


Hmm... 'core show settings' does not show datadir. Should it?
