Hello All, I used Bills latest wsjtx-1.5.0-rc2.tgz posted in the files section to update the my PPA on Launchpad ( WSJTX-DEV ). I'm using that name so when v1.5.0 is fully released, I can push an update to the Debian developers for the current version of WSJT-X (v1.1) in the Debian/Ubuntu repositories without running into any conflicts. This also allows us to test release candidates without having to go through a formal release / update process with the Debian FTP Masters.
The build method is utilizing Bill's SuperBuild Script which includes his Hamlib3 version. Supported ARCH: i386, amd64 Supported Distros: Ubuntu 14.04, 14.10, 15.04, 15.10 Supported Distro Names: Trusty, Utpoic, Vivid, Wily Note: 15.10 (Ubuntu Wily) is the next Ubuntu release, and is under heavy development, be prepared for issues there. BUILD and INSTALLATION COMMENTS: Overall, things went as expected on build and install. There are a couple of niggles that need to be addressed, but nothing major: * Lintian Error: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/message_aggregator. We just need to add the manpage for message_aggregator is all. * I had to delete the WSJTX.ini file in ~/.config in order for the frequency list to appear. With all the traffic being posted on this, Im not sure what the status of this is at the moment. * There's duplications on a couple files, GPL & Changelog stuff, but that will be resolved at the package maintainer level. INSTALL / UPGRADE INFO If you need instructions for Installing the PPA, I can post them. Updating the PPA would be through a normal Update && Upgrade. I can, after you post the formal message for the release of 1.5.0 RC2, post availability and installation instructions for the PPA. The PPA also depends on kvasd-installer, so the user should get the package installed automatically. However, I've not added the pre/post install script to trigger installing the KVASD binary, that will be part of the next RC update package or the formal release, whichever comes first. The build servers are a bit behind, but the packages should be available in an hour or so. 73's Greg, KI7MT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel
