Hi Richard, Some stuff was updated semi-recently in Codec2 and LPCNet to break the dependency loop that used to exist. You should now be able to build LPCNet, then Codec2, then freedv-gui, which should help cut down on the required work to get everything in place (vs. having to build Codec2 without LPCNet, then building LPCNet pointing to that Codec2, then rebuilding Codec2 with LPCNet).
Additionally, it looks like there's a cmake flag called BUILD_SHARED_LIBS ( https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/variable/BUILD_SHARED_LIBS.html#variable:BUILD_SHARED_LIBS). I'm not 100% sure if the current codebases respect this, but if they do, it should just be a matter of setting it when building Codec2 and LPCNet, then specifying the paths to their build folders when building freedv-gui (e.g. what build_linux.sh does). Anyway, I'm not sure how to get around the lack of internet access without including Codec2 and LPCNet tarballs inside the freedv-gui repo, which definitely isn't ideal. Are there any other packages in Fedora that statically link their dependencies?
