Folks,
I have provided a way. I have also just added a post in that provides
“cut and paste” steps.
Some of your Linux compile steps are incomplete (so refer to mine) …
as steps in the OVER ARCHING Install File do not match steps needed in
the WSJTX.TAR file.

There are lots of ways, and all are good JYet some of the tarball
releases that you provide do not work with EVERY “OOB Experience” –
and I personally receive lots of private email requests to improve the
install, deploy and “tinker” experience. A number of Amateurs have
come to me privately to seek guidance. The link above provides a way
that is ensured to work – and cleanly – and is within the framework of
what the original poster requested.
This is not a “who can pee up the wall the highest” competition … The
post WAS about HOW to make things work from source and in the cleanest
way possible.
I also get lots of emails about HOW we play in here and how some
people tend to be personally targeted…. And as many know I bite !
Remember what we do and say in here is seen by many; playing
personality games diminishes all of us in AR. I am not playing
personality games here – I am just helping others. Play “nicely”.
My aim here is guidance and improvement for others. Please note the
changes needed bill in the documentation.

Steve,
you are providing instructions to build an unreleased version of Hamlib
with WSJT-X, that's fine for your own use but please do not tout it as a
"better way to build WSJT-X" for casual users. We provide a bundled
tarball with both a released version of WSJT-X and an unreleased version
of Hamlib that we are prepared to support. The last part is the
important part here, until Hamlib is officially released with a
reasonably current version we will continue to bundle Hamlib with
WSJT-X, it may be broken but that is what we are prepared to support.
I note that, to my knowledge, you have never provided any contribution
to the WSJT-X project in the form of a patch or PR, what is your
intention here?
