-. As of 2021-11-05, FreePBX 16 needed 2 lines to be manually patched in order to work with the new Asterisk 19 (https://github.com/iiab/iiab/issues/2934#issuecomment-962137815[#2934]).
-+
-As of 2021-11-06, these 2 lines are live-patched (automatically) by IIAB when installing FreePBX (https://github.com/iiab/iiab/pull/3019[PR #3019]).  We hope that this workaround becomes unnecessary in coming weeks, thanks to subsequent https://github.com/FreePBX/framework/tags[FreePBX 16 point releases].

-*As of 2022-05-25, this issue remains (despite https://github.com/iiab/iiab/pull/3187[PR #3187]) and unnecessarily so as their `freepbx-16.0-latest.tgz` installer filename is unfortunately bogus (it's not really the latest, rather it's an earlier version of FreePBX from September 2021!)  So a manual workaround is to unpack the latest FreePBX 16.x .tar.gz from https://github.com/FreePBX/framework/tags to `/opt/iiab/freepbx` — _instead of_ https://github.com/iiab/iiab/blob/master/roles/pbx/tasks/freepbx.yml#L69-L97 — until a proper fix arrive (https://github.com/iiab/iiab/issues/3228[#3228]).*
