Hi Bill,
Yes, all the builds Launchpad are complete. I had trouble with Zesty and Clang,
but believe it’s resolved now. Here’s
The info:
Current Version: WSJT-X 1.8.0 RC1
Ubuntu Distro’s: Trusty, Xenial, Yakkety, Zesty
Supported Arach: i386, amd64, armv7, armv8, ppc64el
Incidentally, for folks that want to use Gdebi to install with, you can
download the prebuilt .deb directly from Launchpad for your Distro / Arch, and
install manually. There is no hard and fast rule to add the PPA to one’s
sources list, it just makes it easier for updates is all. Just browse to the
packages at:
https://launchpad.net/~ki7mt/+archive/ubuntu/wsjtx-next/+packages
Pick your Distro / Arch, and download it. The following is an example for
Trusty. The .deb file are toward the bottom of the page. The packages are all
Launchpad Built:
https://launchpad.net/~ki7mt/+archive/ubuntu/wsjtx-next/+packages
Using Gdebi will help with dependencies. If you use the PPA, then apt-get -f is
the preferred option unless your on a Native Ubuntu system.

I would appreciate reports of how well the Debian installer we have
provided with the WSJT-X v1.8.0 RC1 release works. As with the other
early release kits you will have to install dependencies manually and
use rpm/yum/dnf to install them. In your case you will probably already
have all the required dependencies in place.
I installed the binary rc1 (r7847) from sourceforge before Joe's
announcement of the binaries at physics.princeton.edu. Are they the same?
I installed it on Ubuntu 16.04 without difficulty, although as one might
expect gdebi recommended an earlier more stable version, probably
because I still have Greg's PPA in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
HI Richard,
yes they are the same packages.
Greg is probably updating on Launchpad right now, it may even be done, so his
cross version packages will be available very soon.
I'm not sure if you are referring to an Intel/AMD machine or Raspberry Pi ARM
installers, my request to Nik was about Raspbian.
